Pure

The Covenant Series - Jennifer L. Armentrout                          4 stars


I won't lie here - I began reading this second installment of the covenant series as soon as I'd finished the first book. And after finishing this one (not in a night, I swear! ... okay, I'm lying, that happened...), I decided what it was I loved the most about these series. It is such a deliciously fast-paced series of books, where there are none of those little boring explainy bits - there is literally ALWAYS something happening, it's a book where its action packed scene after an action packed scene. Just when you think it's all getting okay for good ol' Alex, something else happens to throw a spanner in the works.

This book follows on straight from Half-blood and continues to follow Alec's POV and her struggles with the daimons, the gods, furies and her romance life. I absolutely loved how they introduced more fully the insanely funny and sexy apollyon, Seth, and we really get to know him a lot more as we learn about the connection him and Alex share. And don't worry ladies, this isn't the most common of love triangles that you will come across... it has it's own little plot line that is insanely addictive and interesting at the same time.

In this book, Deity island (where there covenant resides) is being infiltrated by the evil of the story, and noone knows how this is happening. So its kind of a mystery in its own little way. And the romance, you ask? It's so gosh darn heart melting and the tension growing life a blazing fire between Aiden and Alex is incredible and it just makes me want more, more and MORE. Good thing there are three more books!

All in all, a very good book and Im falling more and more in love with the writing style of Armentrout's and how we learn to love the inside of Alex's head.
