My Review:
Black Ice was a wonderful YA Suspense novel. I was entranced with this book from the very start, and was getting irritable because I wasn’t finding time to finish it (my poor husband can attest to this). Although I found the “mystery” of the novel easy to predict, the journey was the entertainment of the book. I enjoyed how Britt was viewed differently by each person she did life with; and feel that this is a testament to her being whoever she needed to be to fit the scenario, however I found it ironic that the person she was when she was lost in the woods with Mason was probably the best interpretation of who she is when she is allowed to reach her full potential. On one hand, this book was way different from the Hush, Hush series Becca Fitzpatrick wrote previously, however the elements of the ‘bad-boy’ guys she writes are definitely still present in this book!
Rated: PG-13, Some violence, mild cussing
Genre: Young Adult - Romance, Suspense

Sometimes life gets in the way of my reading time also. I suspect this happens to all readers. We so like to escape into a good book.
ReplyDeleteI read the whole hush hush series in a 2 days. I just couldn't stop. I might pick this up. I have to say that hush hush was pretty predictable as well, but I still enjoyed them.
ReplyDeleteI started the Hush, Hush series way back when it first came out, but it got lost on my TBR list over the years. I started listening to the audio say the same time as I picked up this book - I've been waiting for the audio of Credendo for what seems like forever now. :P
