Title: With All My Soul

Author: Rachel Vincent

Series: Soul Screamers, #7

My rating: 4 of 5

(Book read on April 29th, 2013, from my own copy)

Summary:

 What does it mean when your school is voted the most dangerous in America? 

It's time to kick some hellion butt...

After not really surviving her junior year (does "undead" count as survival?), Kaylee Cavanaugh has vowed to take back her school from the hellions causing all the trouble. She's going to find a way to turn the incarnations of Avarice, Envy and Vanity against one another in order to protect her friends and finish this war, once and forever.

But then she meets Wrath and understands that she's closer to the edge than she's ever been. And when one more person close to her is taken, Kaylee realizes she can't save everyone she loves without risking everything she has...

 

My Thoughts on the Book:

 

With All My Soul is the last book in the Soul Screamers series. I really wasn't ready to read this book, so I kept postponing reading it, because I was expecting an emotional roller coaster, and although I guessed (and expected) there will be a HEA for most of the characters, I was a little afraid what Rachel Vincent had in store for us, as well for Kaylee & the gang. 

But, I shouldn't have worried, I just should've read it the moment I got my hands on a copy. Why? Well, the reasons why I was afraid to read it it seems were unnecessary now. To be honest, With All My Soul was a little bit unexpected, but not in a *OMG that was so amazing* kind-a-way & definitely not in a bad way, just a little bit different. And although I absolutely wanted to fall in love with this book, and say that it was absolutely amazing, that just didn't happen for me. It was still pretty good read, some parts were amazing, some were great, but there were also some tiny things that I found a little bit irritating & annoying, but I still loved it, and it was a great ending for the series.

My most fav part about this book was definitely Tod. He still made me laugh & smile, you gotta love Tod. And his love for Kaylee is so amazing, and I loved the scenes between them. And yeah, now I absolutely love the title of this book - With All My Soul. 

But, as for Kaylee, unfortunately she irritated me a few times. I mean, yeah, I already knew she would do anything to save those she loves, and she never gives up, and usually I don't mind that, but how she went about all that here I found a little bit irritating & frustrating, so I started feeling that she didn't deserve Tod. It was unexpected, but that did happen to me a few times, although that feeling didn't stay with me until the end. I mean, I didn't mind when she told Nash about Tod & you know what, and I definitely didn't mind doing what she did at the end of the book, but I was definitely irritated when they were all fighting about who should do what, and blaming each other again & again. I don't know, after everything they've all been through, I think that mostly they should've gotten over all that, not forget, but definitely not throwing blame & flat-out fighting. I guess it's just me, but I was bothered by this, because I found it annoying, and it felt like same old, same old. And at first I liked that we got to see Em's sister & what happened to her, but I got irritated here, too, with Kaylee's decision to help & do you-know-what, and although she found a satisfying solution, I didn't agree with her and didn't like it. So, yeah, it was tiny details like those that I didn't like, but I guess the author decided it's time for lots of HEAs in this book after everything everyone has been through, and she did that while tying up loose ends & answering all the questions.

Some of the other things I loved in this book was the author's idea of soul mates. I thought that was really interesting, and it did answer something I was wondering about in If I Die. 

One of the biggest surprises that I loved in this book was Ira a.k.a the hellion of Wrath. I knew he will show up, and that he will probably play a vital role in the end, but what I was surprised about was how I felt about him. Although I found him terrifying at first, in the end I found him strangely compelling & interesting, and he was also funny, and he actually made me laugh, and I loved that he was actually a little bit different & definitely more powerful than Avari & I loved the way he irritated & enraged Avari. Yeah, that's what he does as a hellion, but I found it quite satisfying to do that to Avari, because he deserved that & a whole lot more. I never thought that I would love one of the hellions of the Netherworld as a character, but I actually did :) I just loved Ira as a character. Definitely surprising & unexpected, and a nice addition to the story.

Now, for the ending, I loved it. It was great, and the only way it could've ended. Kaylee's idea was so smart, and I loved the deals she made with both Ira & Avari, and the help Ira gave her when it came to Avari's deals. And in the end, I was happy with the ending & the way the book & the series ended.

As for the writing style, as always it was so good. When I started it, I couldn't put it down until I finished it. There was lots of action, some emotional scenes that got me teary-eyed, lots of romance, and plenty of suspense that will keep you turning the pages. This book was sweet, funny, sad & lots of fun. All of the characters I learned to love through the series in the end I still loved them, and I'm glad they all got their happily ever afters.

As for you, if you still haven't tried the Soul Screamers series, and you love books that will take you on an emotional roller coaster on a journey in one of the most terrifying worlds created in the YA a.k.a this Netherworld, and a world full of different creatures, then the Soul Screamers is a series for you, and I can't recommend it enough!

Title: Before I Wake

Author: Rachel Vincent

Series: Soul Screamers #6

My rating: 5 of 5

 

 

(book read from July 23rd to July 29th, 2012)

 

WARNING:  

IF you haven't read book #5 If I Die, DON'T READ the summary below or the review, because there are major spoilers for the series.

Summary:

I died on a Thursday - killed by a monster intent on stealing my soul. The good news? He didn't get it. The bad news? Turns out not even death will get you out of high school...   

Covering up her own murder was one thing, but faking life is much harder than Kaylee Cavanaugh expected. After weeks spent "recovering," she's back in school, fighting to stay visible to the human world, struggling to fit in with her friends and planning time alone with her new reaper boyfriend. But to earn her keep in the human world, Kaylee must reclaim stolen souls, and when her first assignment brings her face-to-face with an old foe, she knows the game has changed. Her immortal status won't keep her safe. And this time Kaylee isn't just gambling with her own life...

My Thoughts on the Book:

If you still haven't tried the Soul Screamers series, what are you waiting for? You have to read it! I love the series so much, one of those that gets under your skin (unexpectedly) and you want more & more :)   

In Before I Wake, we see how Kaylee is coping with being dead, but undead. She doesn't sleep anymore, and when she's alone, she's feeling so alone & loses her will to live. That was done great (which was expected, Rachel Vincent is great author), and that also shows how the reapers like Tod & the other undead similar to him & like Kaylee, can & are slowly losing their humanity.  

Other quite important part of the story is Tod & Kaylee as a couple & their realtionship. Yeah, I love them as a couple so much (one of my fav couples in books) & Tod is such an amazing character & so swoon-worthy - yeah, I've probably said that in my previous Soul Screamers reviews, but it should be repeated :) I loved their romance & interactions & dialogues. They were so sweet & romantic & when I think about them, I get smile on my face every time :) I loved it, loved it, loved it & I love them, love them, love them. They're perfect for each other! 

 

I did feel sorry for Nash. I still really like him, and yeah, Sabine is there for him, and yeah, he loves her, but he still loves Kaylee, too, and he's been hurt so much by both Kaylee & Tod, so I can understand him, but slowly he started to turn around, and hopefully he'll get over it soon & moves on completely, although yeah, he's trying. I've always loved the brotherly interactions between him & Tod, and later in the book we do get that, and it reminded me so much on their interactions in the first book. 

Now for the other characters - there weren't a lot new characters, most of them were characters we already knew & know well & we love. All of these characters (Alec, Emma, Sabine, Harmony, Kaylee's dad & uncle, even Sophie) have sneaked inside my heart & I can't help but feel for everything that has happened before & is happening in Before I Wake. 

I won't go into details of the storyline, it was another great story, some things I saw coming, some I didn't, but I don't want to include spoilers, but I cried on the part with Alec, it was surprising & I don't know how I didn't saw it coming, and I'm still so sad. 

Also, I started to feel so sorry for Emma in this book, even before everything that happened in this book, I just had a feeling everything she'd been through before, it's not over, and it will get worse for her. When I realised that while I was reading this book, I found myself surprised, because she's a secondary character & she's a human, so when I started the series months ago & I met Emma for the first time, I definitely wasn't expecting all that happened to her after My Soul to Take, so poor Emma... 

Now, Avari - he must be one of the most evil characters in the YA bookish world & he's a psycho genius, too. So, yeah, you gotta love to hate him & I can't wait to see how he'll get what he deserves, he & all his hellions "friends". As for Thane, I wasn't surprised, because of the novella Never to Sleep, I had a feeling how he's story will go. 

  

As with the previous books, Before I Wake was a fast read (I would've read it in a day or two, but I hadn't had a lot of time for reading this week), that also made me laugh & made me cry, and made me swoon, and there was also a mystery, romance, lots of twists & turns, great writing style, and it was heart-breaking, and it kept me turning the pages until early in the morning hours, not being able to stop reading & put it down until I finished it. 

Another thing I really loved was the extra short story A Day in the Afterlife of Tod, which is set before If I Die & I loved it so much, it was fun & sad, and yeah, Tod got his miracle. I love Rachel Vincent!!!     

Before I Wake is another amazing addition to the Soul Screamers series, so if you're a fan of the series, you don't want to miss it (and you probably won't). I can't wait for the last book With All My Soul next year, and now we know which book will be one of my most expected in 2013!

Title: Never to Sleep

Series: Soul Screamers #5.5

Author: Rachel Vincent

(read on June 9th, 2012)

My rating: 5 of 5

Summary: 

Sophie Cavanaugh is not going to let her freak of a cousin's strange psychiatric condition ruin high school for them both. Not after all the work she's put into cultivating the right look, and friends, and reputation. 

But then, Sophie sees something so frightening she lets out a blood-curdling scream - and finds herself stuck in a bizarre parallel world where nothing is safe and deadly creatures lurk just out of sight, waiting for her to close her eyes and sleep...forever.

Could this world be real? Or does insanity run in the family...?

 

My Thoughts on the Novella:

I loved this novella! It was definitely a pleasant surprise. Never to Sleep is from Sophie's PoV & it happens for a period of If I Die. We meet a new character Luca, he's a necromancer & really liked him & I liked the banter between him & Sophie - so fun & made me laugh out loud :) They meet a soulless reaper (I'm guessing that's Thane), and Sophie screams in terror & they end up in the Netherworld - I guess she inherited a little from her father ;) There they meet Avari (of course), he imprisons Sophie so she can use her & plans to use Luca, too, but in the real world. Sophie escapes from her cage with a few hints from Addison, finds Luca & they try to escape together. Accidentally Sophie discovers that she's the one that brought them in the Netherworld, so they manage to save themselves in the nick of time :) 

As I said, I loved this novella, it was interesting to see how Sophie copes with the existence od the Netherworld, and I liked that there's a new character added to the mix, so I can't wait to see how everything will turn out in Before I Wake. I was already excited about it after finishing If I Die, but after reading Never to Sleep, I'm even more :)

Title: If I Die

Series: Soul Screamers #5

Author: Rachel Vincent

(read from June 6th to June 9th, 2012)

My rating: 5 of 5

Summary: 

The entire school's talking about the gorgeous new math teacher, Mr. Beck. Everyone except Kaylee Cavanaugh. After all, Kaylee's no ordinary high-school junior. She's a banshee - she screams when someone dies.

But the next scream might be for Kaylee.

Yeah - it's a shock to her, too. So to distract herself, Kaylee's going to save every girl in school. Because that hot new teacher is really an incubus who feeds on the desire of unsuspecting students. The only girls immune to his lure are Kaylee and Sabine, her boyfriend's needy ex-girlfriend. Now the unlikely allies have to get rid of Mr. Beck…before he discovers they aren't quite human, either.

But Kaylee's borrowed lifeline is nearing its end. And those who care about her will do anything to save her life.

Anything.

 

My Thoughts on the Book:

What can I say? I loved it, loved it, loved it! Ok, I loved it mostly because of the romance between Tod & Kaylee & them getting together & the sweet ending, but loved it & can't wait to get my hands on Before I Wake. Ok, I have a feeling this review will be a mess, but here goes ;) 

So, Tod let's Kaylee & her father know that her name is on the next week's reaper list, and that her reaper will be the same one that was before - Thane. And Thane is a psycho, he shows up in advance & starts stalking her. She only tells Tod about that & when Tod sees Thane doing that, he does something totally unexpected & so awesome, and yeah, it was sweet, too, 'cause we know how much he loves Kaylee, and he'll do anything for her. And, Kaylee sees him doing that, and then she kisses him & I'm still swooning over the finally fact ;) Ok, so Nash came across them while kissing, and I was sorry for him, but what he did after that was just awful, so thank God for Sabine being there. 

As for the Incubus business, that was really good & creepy, so you gotta love how Rachel's mind workd & her writing style ;) and yay, we met Lydia again, hopefully we'll see her again, and I knew where the ending was going, but I still was a little surprised with a few things ;) but I just loved every second of it.

Sorry, as I said, this review will be a little bit of mess, 'cause I didn't have time to process all yet, but I found this book highly entertaining, I laughed out loud lots of times, & I was enthralled with the story & the characters & Tod & Kaylee, and everything, and I loved the ending, it was just so sweet (although not surprising) and I highly recommend the series!!!

Title: Niederwald

(part of the Enthralled: Paranormal Diversions anthology)

Series: Soul Screamers #4.5

Author: Rachel Vincent

(read on June 9th, 2012)

My rating: 5 of 5

My Summary & Thoughts on the Short Story: 

Niederwald is a short story in the Soul Screamers series from Sabine's PoV, that happens between My Soul to Steal & If I Die, but I actually don't recommend to be read between them, at least for the first time you read the series, because although we can guess (and hope) what will happen with Tod & Kaylee in If I Die, it's better if this one is read after the first reading of If I Die, at least that's what I think ;) 

In Niederwald, Sabine takes Emma to the small town Niederwald, a place where the barrier with the Netherworld is very thin, so some things can cross over, which normally won't be able. There are harpies there, which task is to protect that barrier. Sabine asks to see Syrie, an oracle which helped her before to find Nash, in exchange for the necklace Nash gave to her. Now she wants to ask if Nash will be hers again & to take back her necklace. Syrie paints a picture of Tod & Kaylee together, so she gets her answer, but when she goes to steal back her necklace, she's caught. I actually love this story, Emma comes to the rescue, then Sabine, and yeah, they save themselves, but whole story was fun & with action & mystery & that writing style of Rachel Vincent that I love, so I can't recommend it enough :) If you're a Soul Screamers fan, Niederwald is a short story you don't won't to miss!

Title: Fearless 

(part of the Kiss Me Deadly: 13 Tales of Paranormal Love anthology)

Series: Soul Screamers #0.4

Author: Rachel Vincent

(read on June 9th, 2012)

My rating: 5 of 5

My Summary & Thoughts on the Short Story: 

Fearless is a prequel short story in the Soul Screamers series from Sabine's PoV. It happens before both the novellas Reaper & My Soul to Lose. 

It starts when Sabine is sent to Holser House. We learn why she was on probation & why she ended up at Holser House. Of course, she misses Nash a lot, but he visits her & it's shown what kind of relationship they had (although we already know that) & how much they loved each other. But, at Holser House, Sabine can't seem to feed, because there isn't any fear in any of the residents. So, we learn about new Netherworld species, so that was good, and I really liked the way we learn how Sabine & Nash struggled to learn to control their abilities, and why they're so good for each other. 

So, one more time Rachel Vincent has written a story that had mystery & suspense & romance & great writing, so even though it's a short story, will keep you glued to the pages, even if you might not have tried the Soul Screamers series (the last one I'm guessing, 'cause I already read everything that's been out so far), and if you're a fan of the series, you'll love it!

Title: My Soul to Steal

Series: Soul Screamers #4

Author: Rachel Vincent

(read from May 1st to May 13th, 2012)

My rating: 4 of 5

Summary: 

Trying to work things out with Nash - her maybe boyfriend - is hard enough for Kaylee Cavanaugh. She can't just pretend nothing happened. But "complicated" doesn't even begin to describe their relationship when his ex-girlfriend transfers to their school, determined to take Nash back.

See, Sabine isn't just an ordinary girl. She's a mara, the living personification of a nightmare. She can read people's fears - and craft them into nightmares while her victims sleep. Feeding from human fear is how she survives.

And Sabine isn't above scaring Kaylee and the entire school to death to get whatever - and whoever - she wants.

 

My Thoughts on the Book:

Ok, so I'm a first-time reader of the series & I have to say that My Soul to Steal is my least favorite book in the series so far. I still liked it a lot & enjoyed it, but I read it in four sittings & I took a few days break between each one (read lots of other books) and I don't usually do that. Why? Because it was a little whiney, and yeah, I didn't really want to use this word, but couldn't think of another one, but not whiney & annoying, just a little whiney, with all that apologizing & fighting & jealousy, etc, and yeah, they were all necessary, but it made me not to fell in love in this book, but, even with that, I liked it a lot & I'm guessing it's actually a set up for If I Die, that's why the storyline is like it is. 

The ending was great, I loved it, and of course now I can't wait to read If I Die, I'll definitely start it in 2 days ;) Everyone says it's the best, so I'm really excited! Kaylee was ok, I didn't love her as much as in the previous books, although I still like her a lot, so now my favorite character is Tod, I hope there will be a lot more of him in If I Die. Sabine was really interesting character & I think she's & will be a nice addition to the group. As always, I loved Emma, she's so much fun, I guessed about Alec quite early, and about everything else, so there were not surprises this time, except Harmony's solutions about how to protect themselves in the end ;) 

I enjoyed the writing style, especially the dreams & the Netherworld scenes, they were so creepy & I loved them, Avari as always was one sick S.O.B., but he is a hellion, so no surprise there ;) Oh, and I think that Tod is right & Kaylee should take his advice, because sometimes when something is broken, can't be fixed, especially because Nash lost the feelings of their memories, so although he still loves her, I wonder if it would work? 

Anyway, good sequel & I still highly recommend the Soul Screamers series if you haven't tried it because it's quite good!

Title: Reaper

Series: Soul Screamers #3.5

Author: Rachel Vincent

(read on April 22nd, 2012)

My rating: 5 of 5

Summary: 

Tod Hudson was a typical teenager. He liked girls, sports, food and tolerated his younger brother, Nash. In fact, he had his whole life in front of him - and due to his bean sidhe heritage, it was going to be a very long life indeed.

And then the car accident occurred.

Suddenly Tod's future wasn't so sure, and he had to make a choice.

Life... Death... or something Between....

 

My Thoughts on the Novella:

This novella is great. One more proof that Rachel Vincent is an amazing author. Reaper is fun & sad & funny & heart-breaking & definitely a great addition the wonderful Soul Screamers series. 

From the beginning of the series I was quite intrigued by Tod as a character & I liked him a lot (I just love characters that make me laugh out loud) & I wanted to find out more about him & how he became a reaper, and this novella shows that in quite an amazing way. It made me laugh & it made me cry (it seems Rachel Vincent does that to me often) & I loved every second of it :) 

Tod is an amazing character & he's now on my quite small (or should I say short) list of my all-time favorite characters :) So, yeah, I love Tod & I'm not talking about I-have-a-crush-on-him way, but what-an-amazing-person way & I-wish-he-was-real-so-we-can-hang-out way. 

So, I highly recommend this novella & the Soul Screamers series & I really should try Rachel Vincent's other books soon!!!

Title: My Soul to Keep

Series: Soul Screamers #3

Author: Rachel Vincent

(read from April 4th to April 13th, 2012)

My rating: 5 of 5

Summary: 

WHEN KAYLEE CAVANAUGH SCREAMS, SOMEONE DIES AND KAYLEE IS ABOUT TO SCREAM HER HEAD OFF...

Kaylee has one addiction: her very hot, very popular boyfriend, Nash. A banshee like Kaylee, Nash understands her like no one else. Nothing can come between them. Until something does.

Demon’s breath. No, not the toothpaste-challenged kind. The Netherworld kind. The kind that really can kill you. Somehow, the super-addictive substance has made its way to the human world. But how? Kaylee and Nash have to cut off the source and protect their friends—one of whom is already hooked. And when the epidemic hits too close to home, Kaylee will have to risk everything to save those she loves...

 

My Thoughts on the Book:

OMG, where to start?!? ^_^ I'm still under impressions of My Soul to Keep - I finished it last night (or should I say early this morning - it was almost 4 am) and yeah, I woke up still thinking about this book. :)  A little warning if you haven't read this one, but there will probably be lots of spoilers below.

Let's just say that this one puts what happened in My Soul to Save in a different perspective. 

When we learn about the ballons in MStK, I guessed that this has something to do with Kaylee's idea in MStS. Also, I had a feeling that Nash is using, too, but I didn't realise why & let's just say that when reading the chapters when Nash tells Kaylee why he's using Demon's Breath & how he started were something unexpected, I mean the way they made me feel was unexpected. Why? Well, I don't connect easily to the love interests in the books, but I liked a lot Nash in MStT & I still liked him a lot in MStS, although I wasn't crazy about him & the Nash I got to know would never do that what he was doing in MStK. But, of course there's a good explanation for the change in him. 

So, from the beginning I started to get more & more annoyed with Nash & when he influenced Kaylee for the first time, I started to dislike him more & more as the story developed. So, I started to wonder how he can be completely different? But, when he gets caught & he starts to explain everything to Kaylee, everything made sense & I started to feel sorry for him. I mean that whole conversation was unforgettable & yeah, I cried a lot, (and that was unexpected) especially when he explained that he started accidentally & it was just so sad what he lost to get high. I mean, how could he give up that? Stupid, stupid Nash! And from Avari? How could he? Anyway, that's when I realised that everything that happened in MStS was just a set up for MStK & the rest of the books, so that's the different perspective I'll see in MStS when I'll re-read it & I know I'll probably love it more then. 

Now, back to something that happened early in the book - the boy Kaylee saw in the Netherworld. I knew I'll probably find out who he is later in the book & I was really intrigued, so when he "showed up" much later, I guessed it was him, and his name is Alec. I really want to know more about him, so hopefully we'll get to see more of him in the next books. Anyway, when he "showed up" & I (and Kaylee) realised what Nash allowed Avari to do to her, I did something I've never done before: I stopped reading & started to curse silently lots of times. I mean I didn't curse Nash or Rachel Vincent or anything like that - I just couldn't believe he did that to Kaylee & I took a little break to calm myself (yeah, I needed calming from a book - unexpected for me - I wasn't furious, I guess I was just bewildered) but thankfully one Kit Kat chocolate later & quite a few times listening to This is Gallifrey, Our Home, Our Future from the Doctor Who ost, I was good to go, so I returned to find out more about Alec ;) 

So, after that it happens what happens, although Avari's plan for his celebration was quite unexpected & I have to say quite brilliant from hellions point of view. I was really glad for seeing Addison again (even in that condition) and I still feel so sad about her :( 

With every book, I liked Kaylee more & more as a character & now I love her as a character. Actually, most of the characters in the series are really likable. 

As for Nash, as I said at first I really disliked him in this book, but after that I just felt sorry for him, and now I don't know what to think & feel about him, but what he did was awful. Even before Kaylee thinking that, I had the same thought earlier (while I was cursing) that even if she can forgive him for lying to her & influencing her & using her & everyone else & etc, that he allowed to Avari to possess her was unforgivable, and I was quite satisfied when Tod punched Nash. 

Now to Tod :) Everything I had a feeling about him since MStT, which only was confirmed to me in MStS, was confirmed even more in MStK. I think is quite an amazing character & I can see why everyone loves him! Another thought I had quite earlier before Kaylee thinking it was that Tod will never do to Addison or the ones he loves & cares about what Nash did to Kaylee. So, I like him even more now (although I already liked him a lot as a character) and I'm still quite interested & intrigued by him, so I can't wait to read his novella Reaper next! Also, that scene when he runs with Luci the 2nd time still crackes me up :D 

And the writing was once again great & amazingly suspenseful & I'm now quite eager to try Rachel Vincent's 2 other series! 

A side note about the time it took for me to read MStK. I'm quite a moody reader & if I'm not in a mood for a book, I can't really make myself read it, so when I started MStK, I wasn't in a mood & read only a couple of chapters & put it aside & I've waited to get in the mood, but in the end I didn't get in the mood, so I started to read it late last night & although it took me some time, I got into it & I just couldn't put it down. I mean I stopped reading because I had to go to sleep, but after a half hour thinking about MStK & not being able to fall asleep, I got up & finished it! 

So, My Soul to Keep is definitely amazing & unputdownable & a book I'll think about a long time! 

I think I covered just about everything I wanted, my thoughts about this book are still a little scrambled & not quite sorted. But, if you still haven't tried the Soul Screamers series, what are you waiting for?
