Untamed by P.C. & Kristin Cast (two reviews)

Zoey started off on the wrong path. Her friends won't talk to her, some mysterious ghost-like thing is out to get her, and the one friend who does talk to her has visions of Zoey dying. Zoey has been marked; she is a vampyre. She's living
in the House of Night school. Zoey is trying to pull everything together again like it used to be, but it's hard when she starts disagreeing with everyone about having war with humans, and when she starts seeing her old friend Stevie Rae again. Zoey just needs to calm down and try to deal with everything at once.

Untamed is okay. It didn't capture my attention right away. Since it is in a series, I had no idea what had happened or was happening at the time. It was difficult to
follow along with but I often found myself drifting off while reading this book. Some of this book kept me entertained or was exciting, but overall I didn't really
enjoy reading this book. I would not recommend this to anyone who hasn't read the first three books because the beginning is hard to understand

I read the book Untamed, the third book to The House of Night series. In this book, Zoey's friends have become angry with her and she has to befriend her once mortal enemy, Aphrodite. Aphrodite has visions of terrible things that will happen in the future and when she sees Zoey dying because she was alone, she has to make up with her friends. Everything starts to go wrong when vampires start getting killed and Neferet, who just might be evil, declares war on humans. Neferet calls on demons from long ago to rise and Zoey and her other "gifted" friends have to use their affinity for the 5 elements to save the human race.

This book was enchanting. I couldn't put it down, the characters where so realistic and the plot hooked you right in. This book would be a good read for anyone because it has mystery, romance, fantasy, friendship, you name it. Move over Harry Potter make way for a new series of books! The only bad thing about these books is the cliff hanger ending it keeps you wanting more.
