The Wondrous and the Wicked
Oh my friends, the beginning of the school year and a marathon Netflix binge of Hell on Wheels, (Cullen Bohannon I think I love you) has consumed my usual reading time. But today I finally finished the Dispossessed Trilogy. The story of Luc and Ingrid, the gargoyle and the Duster, Nolan and Gabby, the demon hunter and the wannabe demon hunter, Grayson and Chelle, the hellhound and the girl who could never love a hellhound, all mixed in with the evil Axia, the demon with angel blood who wants to take over the world. Ingrid is trying to figure out the best ways to use her powers to take down Axia, who is trying to reclaim her angel blood from Ingrid. She is also trying to figure out a way to have a life with Luc, who is forbidden to have one with a human. Gabby is in hiding after killing a gargoyle, longing for Nolan to reach out to her after he sent her away. And Grayson. Ingrid's twin just wants to make things right for his family while fighting his hellhound blood. One will lose their life saving the others. One will find true love. One will be given the greatest gift imaginable. I will miss this world of the Paris gargoyles. It is such a clever premise. If you love a good supernatural thriller set in the City of Lights, start with the Beautiful and the Cursed. If you don't fall in love with Luc and Nolan, Grayson and Rory and even Hugh, then maybe the city will pull you in. Just find a safe place and hope a gargoyle will be watching over your shoulder. Happy reading my friends.
