 I couldn't finish it. I actually returned this book. I got to page 60 and just could not bring myself to read any further. I cared nothing for the characters and found it way to simple. The constant pop culture references bothered me; they just dumbed down the book. There are many other young adult books that are much better and more original.  Beyond Expectations This book went beyond my expectations. It is just as good, if not better, than Marked. I seriously loved it and can't wait for Chosen to show up on my front door. I'll be adgitated all day just waiting for it. Best in House of Night Series--So Far... Betrayed is 2nd in the House of Night Series. It's my favorite, so far. I'm looking forward to Chosen, coming out in March!! This book is worth your money & worth your time reading! I recommend this book to any 13+. Others I recommend: Twilight Series by Stephenie Meyer (5/5), Gemma Doyle Series by Libba Bray (4.5/5), Through a Certain Slant of Light by Laura Whitcomb (4/5) and The Blue Bloods Series by Melissa De La Cruz (3.5/5) A great followup to Marked! In this follow-up to Marked, Zoey has begun to settle into her life at the House of Night, a vampyre finishing school for fledgling vampyres. She's taken over as leader and High Priestess in training of the Dark Daughters and Sons and is greatly admired by her friends and many other students in the school. Yet something is itching at the back of her mind; a strange darkness surrounds the school that somehow feels wrong. Zoey wonders if it has anything to do with the ghosts she's been seeing, or if it's all just her overactive imagination... But when a couple of her old friends from Broken Heart go missing, and then later turn up dead, Zoey is inclined to start listening to her instincts. And they're telling her that perhaps the strange feelings and dreams she's been having might just be some sort of vision. For someone is definitely not what they appear, and betrayal can lie in the most unlikely of places. I totally loved this book! It was a great follow-up to Marked. It even works well for readers who may have missed the first book as the author brings up any important points from the previous novel as necessary. In a few cases I found it kind of redundant, but probably because I'd read Marked right before Betrayed. But readers who went several months between reading the two books, or those who didn't read Marked at all, will greatly appreciate the reminders. Though as is usually the case with series, and especially here since I felt a real affinity for Zoey, I do think that reading both books will give you a deeper appreciation for the characters. The 3rd book in the series, Chosen is not due out in March, and I can't wait to read it! | |||||||||||||
