But Vlad has Tucker remember Tucker? Mary Ann's ex who knocked up Penny stalk our heroes. I thought that was more than lame. Vlad is using a half demon to spy for him? He's Vlad the Impaler, mother fucker. He can take on Aden Stone himself. Then there's the new magical creature introduced, the Drainer.

A person who only survives by sucking the life force of magical beings. And go figure, Mary Ann is revealed to be a Drainer. I feel like her character has been ruined now. I loved that before she repelled magic. Now even Riley is scared of her because of what she is. It didn't help that Mary Ann was either whining about how she might be a Drainer or whining about how Riley might not love her anymore for the entire novel.

The final issue is that plot of Elijah's prediction of Aden's death. Throughout the novel it's all Victoria thinks or talks about. I would have thought that Ms. Showalter would have used this plot for I dunno the whole book series not killing Aden off until the final moments of the novel. She used Elijah's prophecy of his death in book 2. Tucker who is working for Vlad kills Aden. To save Aden, Victoria uses her mighty vampire blood in a weird transfusion. The result being that Aden is now a vampire while Victoria is human and has Caleb, Elijah and Julian in her head.

Characterization wise, Mary Ann and Victoria were just whining about their boyfriends while Riley and Aden were being all bad ass and saving the world. It was over pages of that and it was more than annoying. It took so long because I didn't want to read such crap so I kept avoiding it. I was sad that this was the sequel I had been waiting for. There will be a sequel to 'Unraveled' called 'Twisted' which I am probably going to read but I don't have high hopes for it. I am honestly not sure who I would recommend this book to. You need to read 'Intertwined' to understand this novel, and to me this was just a horrible sequel.

I loved Intertwined and going into this one I was excited, ecstatic and This book was so much more heart wrenching than the first. So many things happend and just when I thought things were toning down or slowing down It was filled with shocks, twists and gasp worthy moments. Mary Ann, oh my god, Mary Ann! It seems impossible what she can be something so horrible when she herself is so sweet. My heart broke for her and Riley in this book, it really did.

And what about everything that happened with Aden? King of the vampires and beast tamer. It was awesome to see how the vamps begin to accept him and fear him, he he as their king. I loved how he managed to get control over the vamps beasts. It was really interesting and I look forward to finding out the how and why in future books. The ending was marvellous. And definitely not by Tucker.

It was incredible twist to have Victoria try to turn Aden to save him and have him and up with her beast and her with his souls. That I was not expecting! View all 25 comments. One of the reasons I loved the first novel in this series, Intertwined, was because it was the ultimate paranormal read. Fairies, witches, goblins, demons Intertwined was more of an introduction novel Unraveled is a lot more action! And One of the reasons I loved the first novel in this series, Intertwined, was because it was the ultimate paranormal read.

I thought I knew these characters after book one but that was only the tip of the iceberg. Aden and Victoria, who? Not that the parts about Aden and Victoria were boring, there were quite the opposite actually, and that ending, holy wow. But I was just more interested in reading about Riley and Mary Ann, and I did not get nearly enough of them. Even though this book is a little on the chunky side, it took me no time at all to read. Mainly because I could not put it down. Something was always happening to our fabulous foursome There are so many plot threads flying around, yet Showalter manages to weave them all back together.

How could you do that to me! The one thing that knocked it down from a five star to a four, was because I thought it lacked any resolution Overall, Unraveled is an captivating, action packed read full of all my favorite creatures. I only demand one itsy, bitsy, teeny, tiny thing I'm beginning to think I need to eat my words when I say that the second book usually disappoints. As of late, that has so not been the case. After reading Intertwined, I might not have read Unraveled had it not been for that fact that I won a copy of it.

I would have missed an excellent addition to a series I will be continuing! All he wants to do is have a normal life, attend high school, etc. But, now he's the king of the vampires. He has to make decision regarding blood-slaves, cha I'm beginning to think I need to eat my words when I say that the second book usually disappoints. He has to make decision regarding blood-slaves, challenges, and finding a Queen. It was not surprising no one would accept that all he wanted was Victoria.

Not to mention he has to deal with the witches. His abilities are really starting to come through, and I find him a really interesting character. It's no wonder everybody wants a piece of him. Speaking of Victoria, I liked learning more about her and why she is the way she is. She seems more like a person now and not just a character throw into the story. Their romance is sweet and sometimes raw and emotional. I like the new development of what Mary Anne really is.

I also really loved how that didn't matter to Riley. I wonder how much trouble he will be in for what he has done to protect her. It should make for some interesting subject matter in the next installment. I also enjoyed the involvement of the witches and the fae in this one. I love it when a story twists how you normally think of a mythical creature although the fae weren't that different.

I did think the ending with the witches was really anti-climatic. It was way to abrupt, but I guess the author felt there were more pressing matters at hand. I really enjoyed the ending. It was not I was expecting! I can't wait for the next one! I seriously loved this book as much as the first one- if not more! Riley stayed true to how he was in the first book He stayed with Mary Ann even when she pushed him away, even when he found out what she was.. I mean, yeah i know poor guy thinks he knows her and blah blah, but come on!

He nearly got them into trouble so many times -. To turn him without his consent or thinking of the consequences.. I really hope Riley and Mary Ann join together again and find a cure for her becoming a Drainer- coz then it will mean that they can never be together But i think it will work out with the next book and they will defeat Vlad and come out victorious!

Since I'm sucking at posting reviews I've decided to let Goodreads do the work for me. I'm hoping this will at least let me express my thoughts on the title at the very minimum even though it might not be formatted as I have in the past. My initial thoughts after reading Unraveled: Awaiting the next book already! Gena Showalter never fails to impress me.

What I love about Gena's YA series is that it's relevant to the young adult age group while so full of awesome that adult re Since I'm sucking at posting reviews I've decided to let Goodreads do the work for me. What I love about Gena's YA series is that it's relevant to the young adult age group while so full of awesome that adult readers would love this series too, which I do and probably a little bit more than I do her adult books but I might only say that because it's been a while since I've read one of her adult books. If you love any paranormal adult series I'm sure this series would fit you too.

Feb 11, Kristiana S rated it really liked it Shelves: Seorang manusia biasa yang karena sering meminum darah manusia, berangsur-angsur berubah menjadi vampir. Dia adalah yang pertama. Diikuti oleh pengikut-pengikut terpilihnya, dan hewan peliharaan kesayangannya, para serigala. Dari para istrinya, Vlad memiliki beberapa orang anak, Victoria, Lauren, Stephanie. Oct 16, Julie rated it really liked it. I'm back in Crossroads baby! I probably shouldn't be this excited about being back with Aden and his friends, considering they do have a death curse on them, but I can't help it.

I couldn't wait to get back into this fantastical fictitious world created by Showalter. There's murder, intrigue, love Aden has found a way to be with the love of his young life, Victoria the vampire. All he had to do was kill her betrothed, the Vampire King who murdered her father, I'm back in Crossroads baby!

Aden is Vampire King. All is fair in love and war, right? Not only is Aden a human, hello Would that settle well with you, if you were Victoria? Add to that, Aden learns that vampires carry a little extra something inside their bodies that makes them, shall we say No, there is no happily ever after for Aden and Victoria. They will have to fight in order to stay together.

Don't lose faith though, Aden is far more resourceful than I ever imagined. Despite the whole diagnosed schizophrenic thing, it might be really cool to be him with those skills. Victoria, thankfully, isn't being a spoiled brat about all the obstacles in their way. She comes up with some pretty amazing character moments herself. I have to admit this now. I have my first werewolf crush ever! Riley, Victoria's bodyguard and now Aden's, is the best werewolf character I have seen written. He's loyal to no end. He's manly his words, not mine, but I do agree.

His body is to be admired. He is smart and calculating. He demands respect without actually demanding it. I could go on, but this review isn't just about Riley sigh. His relationship with Mary Ann is a bit rocky, despite their obvious loyalty to each other. Mary Ann has a secret of her own, one she didn't know she had. Riley is the first to figure it out after he finds her "feeding" on a witch's magic, just draining it right out of her.

In Mary Ann's defense, she didn't know she was doing this, but as all young love requires tension, this puts a damper on her ability to date Riley. You see, Riley, his kind, and really all magical creatures, are sworn to kill people like Mary Ann on sight. Turns out, Mary Ann is destined to kill everyone with magical abilities, and one day will kill Riley and those he loves.

I guess that would put cold water on the smoldering fire they feel for each other. But, not with my Riley. Although Mary Ann does something drastic to keep her friends safe, Riley is determined to keep Mary Ann safe and with him. Through all of this, Aden and his friends are trying to find a way to make sure the death curse put upon them by the witches will be nullified. With the help of Aden's friends and his inner voice souls, they search for answers to save their lives before it's too late. Faeries keep getting in the way, witches and goblins are lurking about, and Tucker the half demon ex-boyfriend, has returned to spy on them and report back to his master.

I can't tell you the most scary part.

What is Kobo Super Points?

The part about Vlad the Impaler, Victoria's supposed dead dad, being alive and wanting to take the crown back from Aden. Aden doesn't even know this yet, how could I tell you?! The cherry on top of all this bad news? Aden still knows how he is going to die and now bares the marks on his side that brings him closer to his death. He just doesn't know the when.

Just sayin', he has that stress too. The ending, shall I tell you about the ending? I can't because Showalter left me clueless too! But, it's a doosey as we say in Oklahoma, I can tell you that. In agony for the next the book! Unraveled is a wonderful addition to the Intertwined series. Showalter kept the pace and intrigue going the whole time. I am so excited to see where this series is going.

I have a lot of respect for Showalter's style of writing. I have no idea how she comes up with the things she does and keeps it all straight to weave such a tale. Once you think you know all there is to know about a character, out comes some other aspect you never saw coming, but definitely adds to the story.

I know better than to assume I know where things will go based on usual cliches. I am going to enjoy not trying to second guess an author and just let the story ride. If I gasp, I gasp.

Unraveled (Book 2 Not Again series)

If I cry, I cry. I am already missing Crossroads and its crazy supernatural pull. I may need to take a road trip while waiting for the next book in the series and see if I can't find this place. The characters did take a short trip to Tulsa in the book Oct 27, Rhianna rated it did not like it. Since coming to Crossroads, Oklahoma though life has been looking up. His home life at the D and M Ranch is pretty decent. He's trying to do well in school. He even has a friends and a girlfriend. So maybe some of those friends are vampires and werewolves, and maybe there are still three souls chatting him up in his head.

Things could be worse, he could be about to be crowned king of the vampires in spite of the fact Love Gena, Hated This Book Aden Stone used to be considered a crazy, an outcast. Things could be worse, he could be about to be crowned king of the vampires in spite of the fact he's a human. This time around there are faeries, witches and strange spirit beasts in the mix. Top that off with a lot more drama, not-so-mysterious mysteries and your daily dose of paranormal malfunction and you get Unraveled.

I hate writing negative reviews. It's rare for me to write a "hated it" review but gosh darnit, I hated Unraveled. It's taken me two months to slog my way through this massive volume only to feel like the one thing I was reading it for--to find out more about the souls still stuck with Aden and hopefully see another one get free--wasn't really given much attention. I love Gena, she's not only a talented writer but a just plain cool author when it comes to her fans. This series though, now that I've had two samples, just isn't for me. My main issues were the constant whining from Mary Ann, Victoria's personality shifts that made no sense to me, the draggy pace, too many things going on at once made me think of that saying "too many witches spoil the brew" made it near impossible to latch onto one and enjoy it and overall the main reason I didn't give up after the first book was the souls storyline which barely was touched on this time around.

The only things I enjoyed were the spirit beasts bits and Stephanie, Victoria's sister. I wish I could think of any more redeeming qualities for this one but I just can't. While I will continue reading Showalter's adult books I don't plan on reading the Intertwined series from here on out. May 08, Jennifer rated it liked it Shelves: Unraveled introduced very few new characters, which was a major plus.

We're finally getting to see more of the many that showed up briefly in Intertwined. A lot of questions were raised in Unraveled. The problem is there were almost no answers provided. The book ends with a huge new issue without resolving any of the many issues that have come up in either book. While I enjoyed the ride, I found myself unsatisfied in the end, wondering when if we would ever actually be given answers or if the qu Unraveled introduced very few new characters, which was a major plus.

While I enjoyed the ride, I found myself unsatisfied in the end, wondering when if we would ever actually be given answers or if the questions would just continue to pile up with no hope for closure in sight. There is a lot of Mary Ann in Unraveled and much of the book seems more about her than about Aden. This would have been fine, if she or Riley, or anyone had been interested in getting to the bottom of what was going on with her. It seems as though everyone involved would like to live in a state of annoying denial. Aden remains an intriguing character but I fear we many never get the opportunity to understand his origins, especially now that things have changed in such a major way.

I'm certainly curious as to what may come next, especially for Aden and Victoria, but not quite enough to be excited about reading any future books in this series. The real problem with Unraveled, and the series thus far, is that it seems there is a complete lack of focus. Unraveled has continued the trend with unending plot twists that push the story forward without regard to how and why these things are happening. The characters and the story are very imaginative and could possibly be leading up to something incredible, but it's hard to keep going when it feels like there's a good chance the series will continue in this scattered, unsatisfying fashion.

May 02, Domenica Garwood rated it it was amazing. Ever since coming to crossroads Oklahoma, Aiden stone has been living the good life. Well if good life means a werewolf best-friend, a vampire princess girlfriend, and a supernatural drainer as a sister to him, then yeah its pretty good, not to mention the three souls living inside his head who can raise the dead, tell the future, and posses other bodies. Aiden knows that his life is going to end soon, by a knife through the heart, so he is trying to live it to the fullest.

But when witches inte Ever since coming to crossroads Oklahoma, Aiden stone has been living the good life. But when witches interfere with curses and the rest of the supernatural beings in the world suddenly are after him, he has to juggle protecting his friends, being a good vampire king after killing the betrayer to Victoria's passed father, gaining the respect of the vampires, passing high school, not getting kicked out of his boarding home, and trying to figure out who his parents are and how he ended up with three souls in his mind.

Even though he is forced to face supernatural creatures on a daily basis, and battle life and death situations, he still wants to live. Not for himself, but for his friends and those he cherishes close to him. Multiply "hell, no" by "dream on" and divide by "suck it," and the answer was "the wolf could bite the big one.

This quote is significant and funny because it shows an example of how aiden thinks. He is still only a seventeen year old boy dealing with all of these stressful life and death situations. It may seem impossible, but throughout the whole span of his life he still somehow keeps light of every situation.

Jul 14, Darlene rated it did not like it. Alright, so Unraveled starts two days after the ending of the last book, and I have to say I liked Intertwined a lot better than this one yes, I only rated it 2 stars but it was a whole star better than the second book. It was such a paranormalcy overload.

The souls were enough fun without the vampires and werewolves and witches and goblins and faeries and vampires and. I liked the characters a lot less in this book too. I still hate her as much as before. Oh, and except Alright, so Unraveled starts two days after the ending of the last book, and I have to say I liked Intertwined a lot better than this one yes, I only rated it 2 stars but it was a whole star better than the second book.

Oh, and except for the souls! Aden was okay I guess.

I don't particularly like him though. Mary Ann seemed very dependent on other people but I like how she asked for lessons to protect herself. Riley's overprotectiveness was what attracted me to him in the first place, but in this book it just seemed kind of. Well, not that bad but still. Now the romance between the characters was even worse.

Many face-palms and 'Oh, you sappy creature! And I didn't really see the chemistry between all of them. It was more like. Two days without you feels like eternity! Though I always have seen chemistry between Aden and Mary Ann. Yes, I still want them together! But the ultimate con was the ending.

The souls are inside Victoria. They and their relationship with Aden were the main reason I got into this series and now it's all wrong. Gena Showalter is a very talented author, and despite my feeling on this book, it still had the same addicting effect the last one had.
