Lily Parker is new to St Sophia's School for Girls, but she's already learned that magic can be your best friend ... or your worst enemy. So they say absolute power corrupts absolutely. But it turns out even a little bit of magic can turn you to the dark side. That's why Lily has to learn how to control her newly discovered abilities and quickly, on top of avoiding the snobs who think they run her school, nursing a crush on a cute sophomore with a big, werewolfy secret, and fighting the good fight with her best friend Scout as they take on Chicago's nastiest nightlife - including the tainted magic users known as the Reapers. All that's even before Lily's invited to a private meeting with Sebastian. He's hot, he's powerful, and he's offering to help her harness the magic flowing through her veins in a way that no one else can. He's also a Reaper. Lily can't help but be suspicious of his offer. But she also needs his help. It seems that the line between good and evil isn't quite so clear as she thought ...

This book only gets two stars, cuz, honestly, that's all it was. Okay. Don't get me wrong. I love me some werewolf, and there is jason. but, I don't know, I guess I was kind of worked up for this series to be way more interesting and in-sucking than it turned out to be. I mean, there was some mystery here. there was magic. there were werewolves. by all rights, i should've loved it. But, I don't know, I was wasn't as enthralled with the characters as i should've been. If, by the second book in the series, you're not excited and desperate to get the ending, than that book is missing. that's what I think, anyway. Yeah. so, I actually had all three books checked out from the library. usually, this would mean I feel obligated to the third book, but honestly, school is starting next week, and i have a dozen other books checked out right now, and i need to finish them, so I can't waste another three days on a book. yeah. If you're interested, this book TRIED to end on a cliffhanger. but the cliffhanger wasn't very cliffhanger-y or even original. I have seen more than a couple moving gargoyles in my day. p.s. In other news completely unrelated to this book, Did anyone else watch the Falling Skies season 2 finale a couple days ago? And, if so, is anyone else upset that Hal is now EVIL?????
