Julie Kagawa has already mastered faeries, now she s doing vamps too This is awesome

Actual rating 3.5 starsWhen I first found out Kagawa was journeying down the vampire path, I was nervous I mean, vampires have been written about over and over in the YA world and I wasn t sure what could be added I had imaginary conversations, pleading with her, Julie, are you sure you wanna do this And in all her awesomeness she pretty much told me, Steph, chill I got this Do you know what I love about Julie Kagawa I love how she can take a completely overused paranormal creature like fairies [...]

WARNING INTENSE FANGIRLING TO FOLLOW run away while you still can This book was SO AWESOME It was nothing at all like I expected it to be, but I think that actually made the reading experience interesting First off, I promise I will not make any Twitard references, no matter how strong the temptation And believe you me, it will be almost irresistible As a lot of reviewers have mentioned before me, Kagawa takes vampires back to their original, scary, monstrous selves or does she See, there are v [...]

This is pretty much everything I want in a vampire book It was a satisfying read Allison was a strong, but imperfect female lead This is a sort of post apocalyptic dystopian alternate reality deal where a virus wipes out most of the human population Vampires decide to come out and take over, fulfilling the role of the tyrannical government.Humans exist as pets and must donate blood Unregistereds live as scavengers, barely scraping by Some operate in gangs I won t go too much into it because this [...]

3.5I ve been reluctant to start a Julie Kagawa book ever since I heard the heroine of her Fey series described as weak and constantly in need of saving , they re simply not the kind of heroines I like to read about However, there was something in me that just couldn t ignore this whole dystopia vampires thing she s got going on here I guess it doesn t matter how many shitty paranormal books I read, or how much I hate Twilight, I think I ll always be that girl who grew up on Buffy give me mean va [...]

In a perfect world, Julie Kagawa s The Immortal Rules and I would have been best friends Look what the story has to offer A vampire ruled post apocalyptic world The return of vampires who are blood drinking monsters and not brooding lovers A heroine who wields a katana and kills zombie like vampires with it What could go wrong with any of this, you ask Sadly, a lot could and did, at least for me.In the vampire city of New Covington, Allison Allie Sekemoto yes, she s of Asian descent and, no, the [...]

3.5 stars Well, now, these dark vampires were pretty fun to follow Julie Kagawa is such a master in world building Indeed after having loved her fairy land in The Iron King which is much hated by many of my friends, but what can I say, I loved it and I m not even ashamed , again I felt myself completely immerged and eager to learn about the violent and merciless world we discover here See, to me a great world building isn t necessarily complex No Of course it mustn t be overly simplistic, but a [...]

Wow This book is one of my new favorites for the year.If you think you can t read another vampire book for a while because you are sick of the unoriginal plots and characters that have been around lately you are like me Rest assured, this book is completely original and creative For starters, vampires rule the world in this story The Immortal Rules is set in the future, and it s humans who are going hungry and forced to find ways to get food Vampires have the control and even reading is illegal [...]

Sometimes you read a book, you moderately enjoy it, but when you finish it, you have very little to say about it This is one of those times The Immortal Rules was a pretty entertaining read, but it simply failed to impress me I suppose I expected originality, but instead I got the same old story hidden behind a few interesting details That s not to say I didn t have fun reading it I did, for the most part, and I ll definitely pick up the sequel Allison Sekemoto grew up in the Fringe, outside th [...]

Full review posted on my blog.Julie Kagawa, I am in love with you.And I LOVE THIS BOOK SO MUCH ARGH.

You are a monster Kanin s deep voice droned in my head again, as I forced myself to move, to walk away You will always be a monster, there is no turning back from it But what type of monster you become is entirely up to you Wow I didn t expect this, but I really liked this book, because it has made me out of my reading slump and that is a goal D I m very happy.It is my first book of Julie Kagawa and I ve been delighted by its so fluid and entertaining way of writing, also I liked how incredible [...]

Oh, my god Thank you Julie Kagawa, for restoring my faith in YA vampire fiction After the nightmare that was Twilight, I find myself stuck in a glut of Mary Sueish clones, until Richelle Mead AKA She Who Can Do No Wrong and now Julie Kagawa brought the genre back to life No pun intended, of course.Let me just say that I was not a fan of Julie Kagawa before this I read most of her Iron Fey series, and while it was well written, it did not draw me in So in as much as I admire her writing, her stor [...]

AHHH Julie Are you freaking kidding me You sly dog I love this so much if I knew where you live, I d drive whatever amount of miles to give you a hug A huge, gigantic, love filled hug Like this But I will just settle for an imaginary one for now until I can find her address, of course Ifanyonecan bring back vampires from slow, painful, death that Meyer inflicted on them it s Kagawa I cannot wait DEDIT So, I read Iron Knight and Kagawa had a couple pages of this book in there happy squeal from wh [...]

What do you get when you mix dystopia and vampires together You get THE IMMORTAL RULES The Immortal Rules has got to be one of the best vampire books out there I mean it was unique yet it still managed to stay true to the original concept of vampires I don t hate sparkly vampires because they introduced my to the YA genre but the vamps here in Immortal Rules were bad, fierce and I love it I seriously adore it.The Immortal Rules was set in a world where vampires ruled over the humans.They use hum [...]

Hunger flickered, always there, but I pushed it down I was a vampire Nothing would change that But I didn t have to be a monster A vampire has no heart beat, no matter how hard they try to cling on their humanity, in the end they will remain same, some bloodsucking monsters.Days of Darkness and BloodAfter her blockbuster epic fantasy The Iron Fey series, Julie Kagawa introduces to a vampire infested futuristic world where everything is on ruin and dominated by those bloodsucking creatures Humans [...]

When I picked up The Immortal Rules, I thought I knew what I was getting into I haven t read Julie Kagawa s highly praised Iron Fey series YET , but I gathered from the reviews that Ms Kagawa is a great writer with engaging characters I also knew that The Immortal Rules was a vampire dystopian, so I was prepared for kind of a Hunger Games meets Twilight book.Um, no.I probably should have gathered from the creepy cover that I still don t like, even though I now understand it that this book was go [...]

It was almost better to be caught by the hungry, soulless vampires the most they would probably do was drink your blood and leave you to die Humans were capable of far, far worse I didn t expect this to be so good.I think most people s expectations of vampire books fall somewhere along the lines of angsty teen romance, love triangle, or, if you ve read the Vampire Academy series, high school for vampires I m ashamed to say I thought the same way At the most, I expected some silly entertainment f [...]

If you want to read a book that deals with how to be human when one becomes a monster and the internal struggles to stay human, I highly recommend The Immortal Rules This series challenges the meaning of being human in the world of monsters and whether or not to succumb to the monster inside This series will rip your heart out You ll meet a diverse cast of characters with their own secrets and internal battles It s been 2 years since I ve finished this series and I can t stop thinking about it.

Holy sweet goodness There s a reason why the world loves Julie Kagawa and this is IT Her writing is flawless her creativity is out of this world She could probably write about flying chickens and it would still be amazing The first thing you have to know is that this book can hardly be compared to The Iron Fey series because they re so DIFFERENT in the best possible way The only things that remain constant are Julie s talents for writing, fantastic world building, and creating a cast of realisti [...]

This booked kicked my ass GAWD, it was greatness There is a reason I love you Julie Kagawa You keep writing books of this caliber consistently Kagawa s mix of vampires and a dystopian society is just beautifully written making The Immortal Rules nothing short of greatness Ok, gushing done Wait just a little This book is seriously stellar Ok done I promise Now onwards First, I love the fact that Kagawa took vampires, which we have been overloaded with, and gave the reader something new and fresh [...]
