My rating: 4 of 5 stars

When I started reading paranormalcy,I thought it would be no different from all the other paranormal books out there.
I WAS PLEASANTLY SURPRISED.

What I LIKED:
1.Evelyn:The main character is strong and for the first time the girl is not a damsel in distress.She knows how to fight and fights her own battles.She's strong,spunky,lonely, courageous,normal and paranormal at the same time.She wishes to be a just another normal girl.
2.the pace of the book
The author managed to keep the pace tight.You didn't want to put down the book at all.
3.The idea.
The idea of a paranormal government agency is ingenious.It's a new concept(i think) and one of the reasons i wanted to read this book.

What I DID NOT LIKE:
1.Lend:You can't relate to this character.You do not know his life story and he does not express his point of view often.I think the only reason evelyn is hanging out with him is because he's the only decent and normal guy around who's her age!

2.How the evil person was killed off
It was too easy and short.The bad guy was defeated in an instant.Not even 1 chapter was taken to defeat the bad person.Afterwards you think was the bad guy even a threat?

  1. I was told that I had to read this book because I might like the female character. I like bad-ass female character on books :p But I'm not really in the mood to read fantasy books, actually.. thanks for the review! :)

  2. I have this one on my Kindle, and I have had it for a while. I haven't read it yet. I have heard really good things. The plot seems very unique and interesting. I love the ideas that are expressed. I love the name of the characters. And I love that the heroine is a spunky, take care of herself, kick butt girl. That, in and of itself, is the main reason I want to read this one. That is my fave kind of character.
