1. How does the prequel novella...Prequel questions:<br />1. How does the prequel novella compare to the first book for you?<br /><br />I personally really liked the prequel, which I read before the actual first full length novel. I thought it was an interesting way to jump into the series and I wanted to know more after reading it. <br /><br />2. Do you think Lydia (the girl in the hospital) will make an appearance in later books?<br /><br />I hope that we get to see more of her and what she has to do with the story. <br /><br />My Soul to Take questions:<br />3. When did you figure out what Kaylee is, or did the big reveal surprise you?<br /><br />I already knew about it because this series has been out for a while so it wasn't a big secret for me. I more or less was waiting around for Nash to let her in on the secret. <br /><br />4. Who is your favorite character right now: Kaylee, Nash, Tod, etc. and why?<br /><br />I have to say I really like Tod because I feel like his personality is the most interesting. I hope he becomes a love interest because I really didn't like how Kaylee and Nash clicked right from the 10th page of the novel. Their love happened too quick whereas I really like Tod joking around with Kaylee and teasing her, feels like more of a relationship build up than what she had with Nash!<br /><br />5. Where do you think the relationships between Kaylee, Nash, and Tod will go in the future?<br /><br />Hopefully with more Tod (see my answer for #4 lol)<br /><br />6. What were some plot twists and reveals that surprised you?<br /><br />I suppose I was surprised by the ending. I thought it wrapped up too quickly though! There was just so much going on and to end the book like that felt a little abrupt. <br /><br />7. What do you make of the creepy shadows? Do you think they will become a bigger problem?<br />Idk I wish we knew more about all of it. I guess I shall just have to read book 2! :)Alexahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02504096607685421368noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1344337767758151860.post-92015150627113935482013-02-21T20:10:17.640-05:002013-02-21T20:10:17.640-05:00I love everything you said about Tod! I really lov...I love everything you said about Tod! I really love him. I don't know if this will turn into a serious love triangle or not, but I really love Tod and can't wait to see more of him.<br /><br />I also agree about Emma. She's a good balance for Kaylee with everything going on!Goldiloxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09688290927670961089noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1344337767758151860.post-27694839465850456162013-02-21T19:10:17.250-05:002013-02-21T19:10:17.250-05:00My Soul to Take questions:
1. When did you figure...<b>My Soul to Take questions:</b><br /><br /><b>1. When did you figure out what Kaylee is, or did the big reveal surprise you?</b><br /><br />I was pretty sure of what we were getting into with Kaylee from the beginning. I've known "about" this series for quite a while and am just reading it now. But even without that, I likely would have suspected she is what she is since I have a pretty solid background in world mythologies.<br /><br /><b>2. Who is your favorite character right now: Kaylee, Nash, Tod, etc. and why?</b><br /><br />I adore Tod. He's just my kinda guy and I love how we "hear" this distanced and kinda snarky guy, but we "see" something totally else--him bringing Kaylee the hot chocolate, for instance. I also really like Emma. She's our "normal" here and yet she tends to do a pretty good job at keeping it together despite this. I wonder how she will develop throughout the series? <br /><br /><b>3. Where do you think the relationships between Kaylee, Nash, and Tod will go in the future?</b><br /><br />This really intrigues me. The relationship between Kaylee and Nash happened super fast and almost seemed like background noise in comparison to what Kaylee was learning about herself. The situation with Kaylee and Tod is moving much more slowly and is actually of much greater interest to me. Despite the fact that Kaylee is with Nash, one thing I noticed is that she is often doing stuff for him (driving him, getting him a burger, etc.) whereas Tod, who isn't suppose to even like her, does things for her. <br /><br /><b>4. What were some plot twists and reveals that surprised you?</b><br /><br />Tod and Nash's history was something I didn't see coming, as was the culprit behind the souls being stolen. And yet when I found out about both of these things, I did not feel cheated in any way. They felt like they couldn't have been any other person / any other situation. That's very GOOD. <br /><br /><b>5. What do you make of the creepy shadows? Do you think they will become a bigger problem?</b><br /><br />Considering how well constructed the rest of this book is, my money is on a big loud yes. Ms. Vincent does not seem to waste time on stuff that doesn't matter--everything seems to have a reason in My Soul To Take so I can't see the shadows being any different. What their role will be is something I don't know, but I'm pretty sure they're important.

I'm so excited to now read the rest of the series FINALLY!<br /><br />Okay, as far as the prequel, I thought it was pretty on par with book 1. Of course, Nash is a blip on the radar and Tod is nonexistent so it wasn't quite as enjoyable as the first real book.<br /><br />I kind of knew what Kaylee was before reading because I had read a lot of reviews for the first book already. I did really like learning more about how her abilities worked though!<br /><br />My favorite character is TOD. Love love love me some Tod. He's just so dark and sarcastic and...Tod. <3<br /><br />I think the relationship between these three is going to be complicated! Its obvious that Tod has a little thing for Kaylee already, but she's into Nash and OMG Nash and Tod are related......good grief its going to be a long, emotional ride!<br /><br />I was surprised by what Nash is and I was also surprised about Kaylee's aunt. That twist totally hit me unprepared! I was already predicting that Nash and Tod would be related or something so that wasn't as much of a shock.<br /><br />I think Kaylee will be dealing with the shadow things for a while. Hopefully we will learn more about them as the series goes on!<br /><br />*Can't wait to read more!*Goldiloxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09688290927670961089noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1344337767758151860.post-38275945038576226222013-02-15T19:06:43.060-05:002013-02-15T19:06:43.060-05:00And I definitely think Lydia will show up. That wh...And I definitely think Lydia will show up. That whole interaction was just too weird to leave as a one-off. <br /><br />I knew what Kaylee was in the prequel, but it was fun to learn about the history & such. I had no clue about Nash though!<br /><br />I forsee a possible love triangle but I DON'T want one! Though I love Tod and want him to be happy ... maybe with Emma! That would be hilarious!<br /><br />I was floored by the reason the dad stayed away. how horrible!! And with who Tod was, I had theories, but was so very wrong. <br /><br />I bet creepy shadow guys make a big appearance in an upcoming book, as does Marg. I am super excited to read more!!!littleread1https://www.blogger.com/profile/08565070348003793980noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1344337767758151860.post-68761096284417970672013-02-15T08:32:16.432-05:002013-02-15T08:32:16.432-05:00I really enjoyed the prequel.

It gave me enough information to not feel lost and made me excited to read book 1! <br /><br />Kaylee is my favorite character, because she definitely connected with my high school self!littleread1https://www.blogger.com/profile/08565070348003793980noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1344337767758151860.post-66505917597461420252013-02-15T07:10:09.581-05:002013-02-15T07:10:09.581-05:00Great review!
