In my opinion i absolutley loved this book... it is one of my favorites now... the love between Edward and Bella is so amazing you can't help wanting that kind of love for yourself... there were quite a few "tear jerker" moments and I'll admit I cried a little...
**SPOILER BELOW**
I was shocked to find out Bella gets pregnant and gives birth to a baby girl (Renesmee) and also the fact that Jacob ends up imprinting her. I was not expecting that at all because Bella mentioned several times in the previous books that she didn't want children. I kinda hope that Stephenie Meyer (sometime in the future) writes Renesmee and Jacobs story...

I have to say I absolutely loved this book! It is a very different type of paranormal romance, not what you would expect. Fenris is a very tortured soul and believes he does not deserve to be loved because of his past and what happened to him physically so, he pushes people away by being mean and cold-hearted. Celia believes in fairytales and believes that she can break through Fenris's stone-cold heart and bring out the true man inside. This book shows you that you don't have to be perfect or "whole" to be loved and accepted. I would recommend this book to anyone who believes that true love can conquer all and that anyone can find happiness.

I have to say that I really liked how Germany was the main setting in the story. Hearing someone talk about the Rhein River and talking a bit of german in the story brought back great memories of when I went to Germany in 2005 (I also saw the Rhein River).

To be honest this book drags on for awhile. The book setting is based at one specific location through out most of the book and there is not much variety either. Drum is injured through out most of the book as well. Other then those falts the book has some witty and funny characters. It was a good book and an easy read. I would recommend it as long as you have the patience to wait and see what happens.

I feel that the author left many unanswered questions while writing this book. For instance did Christian and Clothilde end up together? Did Mathilde put something in Prince Michael's food to cause his vision to blur just so Leo would have the advantage over him? Did Cordelia ever see Toinette again?
Other then some unanswered questions I did find the book good, but don't judge a book by its cover... this book isn't a "cinderella" type of story.

I really liked this book because I knew what the author was talking about. I myself tend to talk to my animals and talk for them lol (I have 3 dogs and 5 cats). Lois and Clark remind me a lot of 2 of my dogs, Ginger and Bear (they're both black labs). Bear is very goofy and (I'm sorry to say this) but not very bright like Clark (he makes me laugh though) and Ginger is very self contious and a "nervous-nelly". I would recommend this book to anyone who is an animal lover or who just enjoys a good laugh.

I honestly have to say I chose to read this book because the cover caught my interest. I had never before heard of the author, Katheriine Neville, being that I didn't get into reading until January of 2007 and because the prequel to this book, "The Eight," was published the year I was born. I really didn't like this book, I didn't even finish it... it just didn't catch my interest but, I am not surprised because I usually don't read these types of books but, I took on an impulse and decided to try to read something new for a change. I did enjoy learning some new words in a different language though (I'm assuming they were russian). I do plan on passing this book on to family and friends to read because I know a few people who do like suspense/thriller novels and are really eager to read this book.

I honestly have there was very few things that I did like in this book. I wish Paige wasn't so selfish through out most of the story... I mean come one I know people like to talk about their wedding but geez! And she could have at least tried to listen and hear out Justin and Kyle more instead of just talking all about "her and Michael" then ending the conversation.
I also didn't like how she was so negative about the whole "one night stand" with Justin and how she kept blaming the whole situation on him (at first). He was trying so hard to make things right but she just kept pushing him away.
I also didn't like how the author didn't tell in the story how Paige and Justin told their parents that she was pregnant, they just kept mentioning it through out the story that they were going to tell them but it never happened.
I also didn't like how in the last chapter of the book you read that they told each other they loved each other during sex the day after it happened... I swear when I read that part I felt like I just got slapped upside the face... it was so unexpected and so stupid. The author should have wrote out the sex scene and explained how they ended up telling each other they loved one another...not mention it the next day :S .
And last but not least I am really curious about what happened to Kyle... I know he became Justin and Paige's godfather but did he ever find his true love?
Overall, like I said there were very few parts in the book that I did like. There was just so many things that I wish the author would have wrote differently and gone into detail more. I wouldn't recommend this book to anyone.

This book gives women a bad name... I didn't like how the male main character treated the female main character throughout the book. He treats her like she is a piece of trash and not a human being. Overall I found this book horrible... I am usually really good about finishing a book even if I didn't like it... except for this one... I only made it to Chapter 21 and finally couldn't take it anymore. I don't recommend this book to anyone.

It did take me a few chapters to get into this book. At the beginning of the book I was a little annoyed with how Lyssa was so dependent on Jake and how obsessed she was with trying to have a baby. I did feel sorry for the guy a little bit... until I found out Jake was cheating on her. I don't care what excuse a person has for cheating he/she should never do it. I did enjoy reading about life in Nepal, it got me thinking about different cultures all over the world. Carole did a great job at explaining how life was in Nepal. I also enjoyed the relationship Lyssa had with her sister... it reminded me in quite a few ways of mine and my sisters relationship. All in all this book made me long for an adventure!
