The cover of HIDDEN is pretty and creepy. I love the color, the
symbols, I just thought it would be better if the model has
curls like Zoey.
This series is probably the most-thought-of. It always gets
better with each new book. Conflicts are resolved and new
ones are given with just in the right timing. The story flowed
gracefully in the pages. It didn't feel pushed. It just
happens. From the moment I read the first words, I was into
the House of Night world again. Even with the short amount
of time, (this happens in less than a week) Cast manages to
make it engaging. The story-weaving and the changing POV's
are fantastic.
The characters, both new and old, have developed a lot. They
sure are more matured now. Unlike some books, that mess
your head with the numerous characters, this one makes you
loved each of them, the heroes as well as the villains. Some
die which makes you cry and choke the Casts and new
ones arrive. The diversity, the different voices, powers,
backstories and conflicts make the series very interesting.
I've always loved the House of Night books. But sometimes, I
kind of hate why I loved it, Zoey's supposed to be the
heroine, but she messes up..a...lot.. and she keeps on giving
all the boys around her false hope. And I believe it was
clearly stated from the previous books that she didn't
really love Stark, but because of their bond, as warrior
and priestess and of Heath's death, she's bonded into him,
but does it really have to be intimately. I hate it when
they do everything to keep Zoey, but only for Zoey, when
Erin's turning to darkness, they just let her, in fact they
replace her. (well, maybe they'll try to rescue her in the
next book). Another, annoying fact, it seems all the boys in
the book, not the ones that are taken, are drooling for
Zoey, and sometimes, it's not just because of her curves,
it's because of her tattoos and how powerful she become. I
hate it, that you start to like Zoey's boyfriend, and then
here comes the new boy that's better, more handsome, more
interesting, and the authors will make the boyfriend crazy,
jealous, possessive, irrational, etc. Plus, I should advise
that we shouldn't take this book as fact, especially since
I'm a Christian, I enjoyed reading it, but this doesn't mean
I'm gonna believe in goddesses, spells, etc. This book
should never influence what one believes.The cursing, I
guess everyone does except Grandma Redbird and Nyx.
Sure, Hidden has flaws, but it did entertain me. It kept
me reading and that should be enough for its high rating.
You might not like it, or you'll like it but atleast you've
read a review and been warned.
I loved the idea of vampires, sorry, vampyres lol, magic,
goddesses, half-man/half-bird, fallen angel and the new
Wicca religion. HIDDEN is fast-paced, page turning
heartwarming, laughable, and heartbreaking, it's everything I
want in a book..
This book is epic, like it'll make you think this could be a
finale, and this is not, so what more's gonna happen? What
more can the Casts gives us? I highly recommend this book,
and I will be reading the books, no matter how many it'll
take until I finish The House of Nigh' story.
WARNING for younger readers there are swear words in it and
some scenes containing sexual references .
