Daughters of the Moon - 'The choice'

Jimena and her best friends Serena, Catty, Tianna, and Vanessa are at a rock concert, having a blast, when suddenly the Atrox itself appears. Which has never happened before. Usually the evil being sends others in its place. Suddenly Jimena's friends are sucked into the dark cloud, disappearing without a trace. Catty, before she can be taken in as well, takes Jimena back into the past to try and have her change the future. But Catty made a mistake in her panic. She accidentally drops her friend right into enemy territory--Wilshire Blvd. Jimena soon is confronted by her old rival, Payasa, one chola with an attitude. Then, things go from bad to worse. Jimena is sent to juvenile detention camp after she is wrongly accused and arrested for an esctasy bust. How can she help her friends when she's in jail?!This book was incredible. I stayed up until around 2 in the morning finishing it. But.. I hope the series isn't coming to an end just yet!!! The next book is 'The talisman', which is taken from Maggie's (the Daughters' mentor and guide) view. 'What!? No Catty?' I thought. Well, Catty fans, there is quite a bit of her in this installment, though it's from Jimena's point of view, so don't worry.

one of the best ever written!

this book is simply one of the best daughters of the moon books i ever read! lynne ewing is a excellent writer! the plot of the book involves around jimena traveling back into the past in order to prevent her most terrifying premonition to come true!!she also discovers that new enemies are trying to stop her from trying to prevent that from coming true. in order to save the other daughters, she must join forces with her old rival payasa and together must save them. the plot of the story also deals with the mythlogy of Medusa. this book was really fantastic but the ending was really sad and it leaves you wondering what will happen next. one of my faves so far!

Excellent! Best yet!

WOW! i read this book within one day! - okay okay, i have done it before but this was something i couldnt put down. From the second i bought it to the second i was going to bed i didnt put it down. I delayed eating and my favorite tv shows. - All the daughters of the moon books i have read and loved. But this was far most my favorite one. This one is based on jimena who used to be the tuffest chola in la. Now she only uses the forces of good because she is a goddess, a daughter of the moon "tues dea filia lunae" but now, she has to go back and gang up with some very least likely people. We find out who the betrayer is. - and if you do happen to come across this review - and you havent read the serious, i suggest you do because it is so so so worth it. Dont just say "oh, sounds like [it's] for 10 year olds" - because its not. Im seventeen and i love it! Okay - im shutting up now.

The Choice: What a Choice it was!

It was an amazing story with an amazing ending. I can't believe....well I don't want to ruin it but now I understand that there are really only supposed to be 4 daughters and not Five! I still can't believe who betrayed them all...I really can't!Anyway Read it and you'll see what i mean.-Zach
