Customer Reviews

one of the best!

I absolutly loved this book! I could not put it down. It was a bit gory but not sickning gory. It was very discriptive (in a good way) and held your intrest. Not like any other horror book I have read. Very unique. I would suggest this to the mind that don't doesn't was a sex involved vampire/wolf book and can handel a mind captivating story. Can I say any more? Read it it's really good!

The Mystery of Shapeshifting

I enjoyed reading the book and it was very interesting how everything came out in the end. I gave the book four stars because it was probably one of the best books that I have ever read.I liked how Maris dealt with everything and how determined she was not to leave England. I couldn't put this book down because I wanted to see what else was going to happen. The suspense never stopped and that's one of the things that made me more interested in the book. I hope to see a second part to this story because it interested me very much.

Chocolate, candy, sweets . . . and blood?

The Blooding is a terrific book. It has so much power in it. I could not put it down. The story is about a girl who becomes an au pair for a couple in England. Everything is going great, she loves the children and their mother . . . but their father is another story. Strange things start to happen. Soon our main character is trapped forever in a maze of pain and loneliness.

This was a pretty good book

I liked "The Blooding" as it was a bit more subtle and creepier then "Blood and Chocolate" which it sometimes gets compared to. It is not a very fast paced book but it still a good read. I suppose the bottom line is what sort of werewolf story you prefer.

I wan't a sequel as well.

No matter what has been said in some of the reviews, this book is far from a disapointment. I would recomend it to anyone.
