DEVVOUR BOOK REVIEW: "Beautiful Creatures" by Kami Garcia & Margaret Stohl!

I heard of this novel from youtube and it's many, many... and many book reviewers. I wanted to try it out and surprisingly I was glad that I did. This was a good departure from the typical YA paranormal book. The main character "Ethan" was boring to me, but the whole storyline was decent and pretty good. I like the south-like feel and the darkness of it, and it was an ok read for me. I won't go into deep detail because of *Spoilers* but I really would have loved to LOVE this novel, but it just didn't make me go gaga and that bugs me, but there is nothing that I can do. Love Kami & Margaret but the book didn't do it for me, sadly. ** I gave this book 2 V's (VV) A book better than this: "Dream Date" by Sinclair Smith!



SYNOPSIS:  Lena Duchannes is unlike anyone the small Southern town of Gatlin has ever seen, and she's struggling to conceal her power, and a curse that has haunted her family for generations. But even within the overgrown gardens, murky swamps and crumbling graveyards of the forgotten South, a secret cannot stay hidden forever. Ethan Wate, who has been counting the months until he can escape from Gatlin, is haunted by dreams of a beautiful girl he has never met. When Lena moves into the town's oldest and most infamous plantation, Ethan is inexplicably drawn to her and determined to uncover the connection between them.In a town with no surprises, one secret could change everything.
