Book Summary (Contains spoilers about book 1)
Kate and Vincent have overcome the odds and at last they are together in Paris, the city of lights and love.I am so far behind! I read this book back in March and have not gotten around to writing a review. I guess it's a good thing life was too crazy to read much last month or I may never get caught up on my reviews.
As their romance deepens there’s one question they can’t ignore: How are they supposed to be together if Vincent can’t resist sacrificing himself to save others? Although Vincent promises that he’ll do whatever it takes to lead a normal life with Kate, will that mean letting innocent people die? When a new and surprising enemy reveals itself, Kate realizes that even more may be at stake—and that Vincent’s immortality is in jeopardy.
In Die for Me, Amy Plum created a captivating paranormal mythology with immortal revenants and a lush Paris setting. Until I Die is poised to thrill readers with more heart-pounding suspense, spellbinding romance, and a cliff-hanger ending that will leave them desperate for the third and final novel in the series.
I love this series. I don't think it has got the hype it deserves. Great setting, beautiful cover, well written, fabulous characters and clean enough that I don't have to put a big disclaimer if I recommend it.
I love the Revenants lore/world that the author created. Can't wait to see how everything plays out in the next book.
Be warned there is a huge cliffhanger ending and the final book doesn't come out until May of 2013! If you haven't read this series you should but maybe wait until it's a little closer to the release date for the final book: If I Should Die. I can't wait to read it!
I admit I did like the first book in the series a tad more than I liked this one. I was able to put Until I Die down when I had to and come back to it. There are some books I just can't put down (such as book 1 - Die for Me) but this was one I could. Still a great book!
Rating: 4.5 Stars - Great Book!

Content: I didn't take any notes but I can't remember anything really objectionable. A little too grown up for my 12 year old but ok for older teens.
this is the first I've heard of the series but it sounds interesting. I'm going to go order it and add it to my TBR list! Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI wish I could be paid to read :)
I really enjoyed this book as well and that ending really is a killer! Great review.

This is a great series. I enjoyed this one, but I liked Die For Me a little more for the faster pace. Looking forward to book 3!
