I love a good reaper book. A lot of the time, they are given a bad rep. Not all reapers are evil. Especially Finn, he's got a good heart.

We're kind of thrown into the story. We know Finn is protecting Emma, but we don't know why. As I said before, he has a good heart. He just tends to think with it, and not about consequences. He has his own demons he hast to get past, and you have to wonder if he'll have the strength to keep Emma alive. Emma seems kind of annoying at first, but she's strong and independent. She's had a rough life since the accident with her father. She looks for answers instead of letting things happen to her. The other awesome character is Cash, Emma's best friend. They've been through a lot together, and you can tell just how strong their bond is.

Inbetween has a little bit of action around every corner. Emma is constantly having to watch her back against something she can't even see. The way the characters interact with each other flows really well, and they are believable. I'm excited to learn more about this world. Especially one event toward the end. I must know the reasoning behind it.

Last week I reviewed Inbetween, and I mentioned how much I loved the character Cash. Well, if you loved him too, this book will be all kinds of awesome for you. Blurred is focused on the lives of Cash and Anaya.

Let me start out by saying that I freaking loved this story! Possibly even more than I did Inbetween. We pick up right after the events in Inbetween. I thought I couldn't love Cash more than I did, but I do. It's great being inside his head, and seeing things the way he does. The only problem is he sees these creepy shadow things that seem to want him. Cash is still a major smart ass, but now he's got a little bit of fear in him. He also doesn't know how to handle his feelings towards Anaya. There are sooo many ranges of emotion he goes through when it comes to her. I loved getting to know Anaya better. She seems so pure in the previous book, but even she has secrets. She does have a good heart though. It's in the right place. We get a few glimpses of Finn & Emma, but not many. They do their best to help Cash through his little shadow problem.

Blurred goes by quickly. I got to the end, and was like "there's no way I already finished this." It sucks you in, and you don't want to let go. I enjoyed seeing the aspects of a shadow walker also. I haven't read about these types of people before, so it was good to get to know what they can do.

I'm glad the story doesn't end with Cash and Anaya. The third book will be out Summer 2014, called Descent, and it's about Easton. Our favorite bad boy reaper!!! I'm hoping we also get a story about Scout or Noah (who we meet in Blurred.)… (mais)
