Beneath the Skin

I finished another series, yea! Now a billion more to go :). I was sad to be done with it but I finished Beneath the Skin by Adrian Phoenix. I wish I knew when the fourth book comes out, Etched in Bone because I definitely want to continue reading the series. This book is part of the The Maker's Song series. You can find my thoughts for book one, here and book two, here.

I have to say I'm glad I got to read this one close to book two because if I had to wait between the two, I probably would have gone nuts. We were left off with Dante, Heather, Annie, and Von on the run after the events of book two. A majority of book three is the road trip back to New Orleans. Along the way we get a glimpse of other characters who want revenge on Dante, answers, and to find the maker. The relationship between Dante and Heather deepens in this one and I can't wait to see their relationship go even deeper in the next book or hopefully books.

There is definitely no way Phoenix can tie up the series in one book and personally I'm hoping we get a few more. I have a feeling we haven't seen the last of Gabriel and Mauvais.

I know Annie is Heather's sister but there were times I just wanted to slap her. I could never do that to my sister knowing how much it would hurt her. Von, loved him even more by the end of the book. The way he protects Dante and now, Heather, love him! If you haven't read the series, put it on your TBR list.

  1. I will be in awe of you if you finish The Mysteries of Udolpho. I got it from the library once and just stared at it for a month before I had to return it. ;)
