The Forever Song 

The Forever Song by Julie Kagawa  (#3)
☆☆☆☆/5

THE GREAT READING BINGE OF 2016

Genre: YA Paranormal Romance


I can’t change what I’ve done, but I CAN try to make things better. I want to live, and I want to spend forever with you.

Jesus my heart. T.T I’ll try to review this one without too many spoilers. 

So this is the end of the Blood of Eden Trilogy. The last book ended off with Jackyl, Alli and Kerin on the hunt after the psychopath vampire Serrin. They fear he’s headed to Eden, the last human compound, armed with a deadly virus that would make the Red Lung virus look like a mere cold. They meet old friends along the way, Alli battles her inner demons, and finds out what it means to live. 

And *SPOILER HUMDINGER * and *MORE SPOILERS * and *ALL THE SPOILERS* and it was AWESOME. 
Kagawa is a YA writer but her fight scenes were vicious and morbid and had you on the edge of your seat. For a vampire love story it WASN’T TERRIBLE and their version of Vampire hanky panky isn’t really sex. XD Jennifer would be pleased to know that vampires act like vampires in this one. 
I highly recommend this series.
And because I was cat less when I took the pic, here’s some prime bean poking for your viewing pleasure:

As far as Vampire novels go, this one was a good one. Post Apocalyptic, the world has been destroyed by something called the Red Lung virus. Scientists hoped to cure it using vampire blood but instead, created a sort of monster called Rabids. Half vamp, half monster. Allison is a young girl living on the fringe of New Covington as an Unregistered under the reign of a vampire prince. She’s fighting for her survival when an attack with a rabid goes awry and she is posed with a choice- die human or live forever as a vampire? She chose the later and this book was mostly her journey through the bad lands trying to find out what it means to be immortal and how humans play a role.

This book was good as far as paranormal goes. It was like TVD meets Mad Max and all the rules were in place. (Which I appreciate. No sparkly vampires here). It was a good, driven plot and lots of action. And a strong female lead as our main protagonist. 😀 I’d go into more but alas, I don’t want to ruin the book. There is a romance angle but it’s centered between the 2, and not a love triangle. It’s a battle for survival.

I recommend this book to people who liked Twilight or paranormal things. 🙂
