it has been a while since i read dark heart rising so i want sure if id need to recap or not, as it turns out i didnt. There were references to the previous two books that triggered as reminder which was helpful.
Really enjoyed this book wasnt as much romance in it as the others which was good if you, like me dont care for it.
The villans in this book are a creature called the vulpecula who have a thirst for revenge. Their characters are quite enigmatic and strong, perhaps more so than the two major characters and their mind games keept me engrossed wanting to know their next trick.
I also found Dot to be quite a humorous litttle character that lifted the book up when i felt it getting deep with negativity.
I found janes mother to be rather annnoying throughout the book i just kept thinking if i were jane id tell her to leave me alone and stop treating me like a child, in particularly when luca and jane were lingering in the car and she came out to bring them inside i just thought WTF. But she is the only character i didnt like.
There were two issues with the book.
1. I am terrible with grammar etc and know to expect in in my writing as im not published by an agency that is meant to clear up mistakes. So when reading this i couldnt help but think lee monroe could use a better editor, the story is written in first person for jane and 3rd person for luca and there were a few times where it hopped to third person in janes POV.
2. After lucas incident at the dance with polly, i think jane should have found out via the siblings as they are percieved to be all cunnning and cruel, but it got swept under the rug like it never happened. I was expecting there to be hell raising fury or....something not just a few 'a feeling of dishonesty passed over me' or whatever was put.
Other than that a really good and quick read. And if that was the last of the dark heart series it was very well written. With lovely covers to compliment lee monroes work.

A good read, i figured out the story too soon which was a bit of a down for me but it was easy reading and much like Shiver (wolves of mercy falls) which i also enjoyed.
this could have easily been a 5 star rating but i felt the author gave everything away too soon. And though the book never dragged it never really went anywhere.
Im reading Dark Hearts Rising now and so far it seems to be good =]

Liked it. It was quite good. Gave it three stars because things only got to happen halfway through the book and I was getting bored with Jane, actually. I found Luca to be such a sweetheart and then he got all sexy and male in the end that I was totally sold. It is a good book to take your mind off of day to day life and a pleasent distraction too. I will be reading the second book though, because I read very good reviews about it and I reccomend that people give this one a chance.

dark heart rising is gripping, though im not sure why, unlike the first Dark Heart Rising is less predictable making it better but the thing that lets the novel down is i pretty much got the feeling it was the same as the first just with a slight difference. This was a good read and i finished it in pretty much a day just wish there was a bit more depth.
i found myself disliking Luca in this more than i did in the first. mainly because i cant tolerate people like him, they drive me mad with frustration.
not sure if i overly want to read the third, i will have to wait for it to come into library though i dont intend to buy it.
these novels do remind me very much of the wolves of mercy falls, only more tame and without as much action.
