Kylie Galen has had a lot of crap tossed in her lap lately. Her parents are getting a divorce for who the heck knows why. Her boyfriend broke up with her because she wouldn't put out. And her grandmother died because . . . well, older people do that. But now, Kylie's acquired a stalker and she hasn't a clue what he wants or how to get rid of him . . . and she really wants to get rid of him because apparently she's the only one who sees him. Thinking she may be losing it, her parents send her off to see a psychologist who gets Kylie sent to Shadow Falls Camp. Kylie and her parents think it's a camp for troubled teens.

They thought wrong.

Kylie's surrounded by vampires, werewolves, fairies, witches and shapeshifters. And if she believes what they tell her, she's one of them. They're just not sure exactly how she fits in. As Kylie struggles to cope with the realization that these creatures even exist, and the fact that she might not be human, she's got two hot guys, a werewolf and a half-fairy vying for her attention. And they can just keep vying. Kylie's determined that before she lets her heart loose on love, she needs to unearth the truth. What does the ghost want? Who can and can't she trust? And most of all . . . What is she?

The Iron King Book Review!

THE PLOT:


My name is Megan Chase.

In less than twenty-four hours I'll be sixteen. Countless stories, songs and poems have been written about this wonderful age. When a girl finds true love and the stars shine for her and the handsome prince carries her off into the sunset.

I DON'T THINK IT WILL BE THAT WAY FOR ME.


MEGAN CHASE HAS A SECRET DESTINY-
ONE SHE COULD NEVER HAVE IMAGINED...

Something has always felt slightly off in Meghan's life. Ever since her father disappeared before her eyes when she was six. She has never quite fit in at school...or at home. 

When a dark stranger begins watching her from afar, and her prankster best friend becomes strangely protective of her, Meghan senses that everything she's known is about to change. 

But she could never have guessed the truth-that she is the daughter of a mythical faery king and is a pawn in a deadly war. Now Meghan will learn just how far she'll go to save someone she cares about, to stop a mysterious evil no faery creature dare face...and to find love with a young prince who might rather see her dead than let her touch his icy heart.


MY REVIEW:

Iron king where do i even start. Well let me just say this. OMG I love this book! I never put it down it was so good. This is why I start reading and why I read paranormal book. I just love the cover. How the vines pop out on the cover. And I like that they continue the vines though the book. writing style amazing. It just makes you want to be in the book. I really related to some of the character. Meghan and puck the most. Meghen remind me of myself. I'm always giving up things to help somebode else. Puck more like my friend always joking but serious at times when it someone they hate. And ash cold, icy and beautiful what more could you ask for. But it's a really good book and read and I totally recommend it. so check it out and I'll write you later. Bye.
