Book Review

It has been a while since I have reviewed a book here but this book just blew me away. 

Lover Awakened (Black Dagger Brotherhood, #3)

Lover Awakened is the third book in the Black Dagger Brotherhood series.  I started reading the series based on my mother's recommendation.  We tend to have similar opinions when it comes to books so I jumped right in.  The first two books are good but this one is the best so far.

It has so much meat on the bones in terms of story and is really intense.  I was sitting there reading and thinking gosh I must be half way through by now but when I looked at the page number I was only 74 pages in.  Then later I thought I have to be close to the end by now and was only on page 141.  I felt like I had read 3 full books by the time I finished this one book.  The author jumps between different character's points of view which can be a little annoying at times but it is worth it end the end because you get a more complete picture of what is going on.   If you have ever watched a soap opera think of they way they jump around to the different scenes that are all happening at the same time and you will understand what this author is doing.
I highly recommend this series (I just started book 4 yesterday) and if books 1 and 2 don't draw you in stick it out till book 3 and you will be hooked.  

Part of me is worried I will be disappointed  by the rest of the books because that one was so intense and consuming but my mom assures me I will not be.
