Moon Spell a Tale of Lunarmorte novel Samantha Young 9781466437715 Books

Let me start off by saying, I love this author. I love so many of her books, I was honestly shocked by the quality of this story.

The concept is interesting and potentially entertaining. Caia is a Lycan high school senior who has been in hiding the last 10 years. The story starts off with her return to the pack and progressively leads to the real reason for her being in hiding in the first place. There is some romance involved with the pack leader but it's dull. Seriously dull. Much like every other aspect in this book.

Although I will say I really liked how this was different than a majority of the lycan stories out there. The Lycan's are descended from the Gods and there is some cool backstory to that.

The execution is just terrible, so many typos, so many grammatical errors. So much whining. So little entertainment. I found myself skimming most of the time and for me it was a DNF at about 80%. It's irritating me to no end that I can't go further with it but I honestly don't want to waste anymore of my precious reading time.

I would say overall, interesting concept poorly executed. And it really did hurt me to say that. I cringed.

Book Description

After ten years of hiding from her family's killer, seventeen year old Caia Ribeiro returns to her pack having no real recollection of the way pack life differs from her lone wolf upbringing. As she struggles to fit in with her lykan family again, Caia is thrown into a world of dark secrets that revolve around her very existence. Not only is she thrown into the unknown world of pack life, but her immediate attraction to her young pack leader, Lucien, confuses and frightens her. She just wants to fit in with her family even though she's so different from them in looks and attitude. Why is she so different when they are all the same? With love far from her mind as she assimilates to pack life, Caia tries to live a normal life...well as normal of a life as a teen wolf can especially when the gods are involved.

Review

Lykans, vampires, witches, and gods, oh my! Samantha Young's Moon Spell is a fantastic interpretation on Greek mythology with a twist of the supernatural. The Tale of the Lunamorte trilogy is a wonderfully refreshing YA Paranormal Romance series. Young has created a supernatural world that stands apart among the stale and overwritten wolf and vampire themes in YA paranormal books. By involving restless and meddlesome Greek gods, Young has given us a paranormal romance that surpasses the masses by mixing supernaturals, teen angst, and end of the world seriousness. I can't express enough how happy I am to have found an author with such a wonderful imagination and a way with words. Her vivid writing style made me feel as if I was taking every step with each of her characters. Moon Spell and the following two novels are all must reads!
4 stars -- After a less than impressive first read by this author, I actually picked this book next because it had less "good" reviews by my friends than the other paranormal series I have by her, and I kind of wanted to get the "bad" book out of the way if that makes sense. So I was actually pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed this book! It had some of the pitfalls of the other book I read (Smokeless Fire) -- a bit of info dumping in places, but not nearly as bad. And I found myself interested in it much more quickly.

In general I really enjoyed Caia. She had a vulnerability to her that speaks to me in characters...it's just a personal preference type of thing. I guess I like the outcasts. Occasionally she would get on my nerves with her choices, like how she dealt with Sebastian's crush for example. And she really could act her age, but that's not necessarily a bad thing, it's just surprising sometimes b/c so often the heroines in YA books act more mature. But overall she really tugged at my heartstrings with all that she was going through.

I guess part of the reason you really noticed how young Caia was is because of how much older her romantic interest, Lucien, was....not that he always acted like it, but it was a bit of an age gap...one you wouldn't notice if they were both adults, but it added a strange feel to their romance. Now, despite that, the kisses were hot. But the progression from there was a bit of a surprise.

I don't tend to read a lot of shifter paranormal books...I'm not entirely sure why, I just don't gravitate towards them. But I appreciated the world that was created in this book, and the background of all the paranormals in this book... Sometimes it got a bit confusing b/c there was so much information, but I think it will start to become easier as the books go on.

And I really loved a lot of the secondary characters -- from fellow lycans Magnus and Ryder, to the witch Marion and the sassy faerie Saffron. They added great moment of levity and (obviously) sass, and I look forward to more glimpses of them.

So definitely looking forward to the next book in the series and finding out what's going to happen in the war and all that shiznit. A bit on the fence about the romance, but I was glad that there was at least a little bit of it in this book.
