Book Review: Captivate
Title: Captivate
Series: Umm... it is the second book to Need, I don't know the series name
Author(s): Carrie Jones
Genre: Fantasy/ Supernatural
Publisher: Bloomsbury
Pages: 276
Challenges: None
Summary: Zara and her friends knew they hadn't solved the pixie problem for good. Far from it. The king's needs grow deeper every day he's stuck in captivity, while his control over his people gets weaker. It's made him vulnerable. And now there's a new king in town.
A turf war is imminent, since the new pixie king, Astley, is moving in quickly. Nick nearly killed him in the woods on day one, but Zara came to his rescue. Astley swears that he and Zara are destined to be together, that he's one of the good guys. Nick isn't buying it, though Zara isn't as sure -- despite herself, she wants to trust the new king. But it's a lot more than her relationship with Nick that is at stake. It's her life -- and his.
My Thoughts: Captivate was just as amazing as Need event though I hate the ending!! The characters were well written and very realistic but I didn't like what Astley did in the end. My one big complaint about the book is that it didn't really have an ending it just dropped off into nothing which is very maddening because I don't know what happened. I also had to really think through the plot line which was a little bit hard to follow. Other than that the book was good but I think that it seemed kinda elongated. Need could have just been one book but... the author made it two... so I guess it isn't my decision.
Overall Rating: 2/5
One word/phrase sum up: Hard to Follow

ReplyDeleteI know!! What's up with the ending? But I really loved both of them too. I hope, hope, hope there is a third one or I will be TICKED!
ReplyDeleteI hope there will be a third one because if there isn't well then it would be a very pathetic series. There would be no ending
