The Summoning by Kelley ArmstrongMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
So I bought this book sometime in mid 2011. Like always, it was awhile until I got to it. Try a year and half like, but I'm glad that I finally decided to pick it up.
I vaguely read the blurb on the pack and surprisingly I didn't look for spoilers until like 150 pages into the back.
The books is kind of slow paced and there's not much action. I think like most first books in a series the opening book kind of sets up the world.
The characters? I really enjoyed reading from Chloe's POV. She didn't seem shallow like some YA heroines I could mention, but I won't because I don't want to go another whole tirade. I liked that she seemed normal you know despite seeing ghosts.
I want to say that part way through the book, I started to really grow fond of Derek. I know he's described as ugly and Chloe mentions acne once near the end of the book. But I was really attracted to his personality, even though he sometimes did come off as a jerk. Typical girl eh? :p
I'm really looking forward to reading the next two books. I'll have to wait a bit, but soon I'll have them in my grasp!
