It's the only 500+ page book that I've read in under 24 hours and I'm a HUGE Potter fan!<br />Excellent story.Kath Thorpehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13682806563347459877noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21582709.post-21702116909965225672011-06-30T22:22:39.367+01:002011-06-30T22:22:39.367+01:00That was a great review!
I read the book and loved...That was a great review!<br />I read the book and loved it too!<br />And here's my review:<br />Josephine Angelini is a fabulous writer as ‘STARCROSSED’ is one of those books that people just HAVE to read. Forget brooding vampires – they’re just so last year! Bring on the Demigods! They’ve got “strength, speed, agility, acute hearing and eyesight, beauty, rapid healing and intelligence” and on top of that, some of them even have rare special powers like flying! I don’t think anyone can top that! <br />Lucas Delos and Helen Hamilton fell in love when they were practically destined to loathe one another and this unique love somehow binds them together because every minute they are apart, it’s like torture. Josephine Angelini really makes the reader feel what the characters are feeling which I think is a unique ability few writers possess. By the end of the book, you will no doubt crave for the next book – just like did and still do!Jeena Mathewnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21582709.post-21459873759497002932011-06-23T11:49:24.901+01:002011-06-23T11:49:24.901+01:00Conniee - You're very right, it's very fas...Conniee - You're very right, it's very fast paced and exciting.

Here's mine!
For the first 50 ...Great Review!<br /><br />Here's mine!<br /><br />For the first 50 or so pages I thought this was going to be just like Twilight. Initially there are lots of similarities between Helen Hamilton and Bella. For instance they both are living with their dad and both feel a bit out of it at high school. However, from about page 50 onwards this story takes on a life of it’s own. With demigods, Greek mythology, furies, the underworld. It is a fast paced page turner. And Lucas Delos is the perfect heart throb. I hope there is a sequel coming soon because the ending left me wanting so much more!Connieenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21582709.post-5553634280460500632011-05-30T21:14:33.897+01:002011-05-30T21:14:33.897+01:00Vivienne - Yes!
