Review of Seraphina's Awakening:

4 stars

I enjoyed reading Seraphina's Awakening by Sheena Hutchinson. It was a slower paced book in my opinion, but it still kept me interested, and I read through it barely putting it down for breaks. I loved the plot and I really enjoyed getting to know the characters throughout the story.

I liked Seraphina, but I thought she was a standard female protagonist, meaning she wasn't different from a majority of female protagonists in books. I also really liked Jack and Nataniel, and overall, I thought the character development was nicely done.

One of the things that I really enjoyed about this book was the added mystery that I was expecting. You don't really know who Seraphina is, and by the end, you still don't really know who she is. I hope that gets answered as I continue with the series.

One of the things that I really didn't like was the love triangle. I'm not really a fan of love triangles - I don't really think they add anything to the story, and end up taking up time that could be spent on the plot.

Overall, I really enjoyed the story, and would highly recommend it to anyone who is a fan of paranormal romances with angels.

Review of Seraphina's Initiation:

4 stars

Seraphina's Initiation was a great continuation of Seraphina's Awakening. A wonderful improvement from the first book was that the pacing was much faster, and there was almost non-stop action happening, which kept me riveted to the story.

I loved how much Seraphina grew in this story - it definitely made me love her more than I did in the first book. I also really loved Nataniel, and I loved how he was in this story and his romance with Seraphina. I don't really like Jack anymore.

If you enjoyed reading the first book or even if you thought the first book was okay, I would definitely say it is worth reading this book because I feel that there was a lot of improvements from the first book - depending on why you didn't like the first book.

Review of Seraphina's Vengeance:

4 stars

After the improvement of the second book, I honestly didn't expect this book to be any better - but honestly, I felt that this book was the best book of all of them. I felt like there were so many plot twists and unexpected events occurring throughout the entire book.

I loved the character change of Seraphina - you get to see a different side of her in this story, and I think Sheena Hutchinson did a great job of handling that, and making her a character that you still love. As usual, I still love Nathaniel and I'm still not a fan of Jack.

All in all, this was another great addition to the series, and I highly recommend this series and cannot wait to read the fourth book when it comes out.
