Chaos Unleased (Chaos Rises Book 2) by Pippa DaCosta

Hi ForeverBookers, 

I’ve just finished a great book. Chaos Unleashed is the second book in the Chaos Rises series and it definitely held up to its predecessor in how good it was!  

Chaos Unleashed continues from where Chaos Rises finishes. Gem, our half human, half ice demon and her brother, Del, our half human, half chaos demon from book 1 continue their adventure in a dystopian LA. 

NOTE: this novel shouldn’t be read by anyone below age 17, I don’t think as there’s a sexual scene. It’s not heavily described but you know that it happens. Also there’s war and bloodshed in Chaos Unleashed. 

Gem is alone. Her brother is with some evil demons by force or possibly by choice. The one other person she might have cared about she doesn’t 100% trust and she is about to make a deal with a Devil. 

The Prince of Pride, Li’el is the devil that Gem doesn’t know whether to trust or not. 

“If the Academy Awards handed out Oscars to demons, Pride would win them all”

denotes that Pride is a bit of a schmoozer, used to getting what he wants. 

Pride and Gem form an unlikely friendship as they try to work out what’s happening in LA. I really enjoyed reading about this friendship. It’s quite funny reading some of the exchanges between Gemma and Pride.

“I’ve followed you around for a week, and you haven’t done anything.”
“That’s a matter of opinion.” He planted his bare feet on the floor and ran his hands over his shaved head. “It’s too early for half-blood drama.”

This happens after a party Pride has just woken up after. Gem needs to go and find her brother but Pride is more bothered about other things. That’s until he realises Gem is only trying to protect what she thinks is hers. 

I don’t really want spoil anymore as it’s a lot better to go into this story quite blind but there’s fighting, romance, and humour throughout Chaos Unleashed! 

What did I like about Chaos Unleashed? 

I liked how every character had a role in the book. It didn’t seem like any of them weren’t needed.

I liked how Chaos Unleashed is told from first person perspective. It made Gem’s emotions seem real. 

I liked how one second I was thinking bad things were going to happen but the next I was laughing. 

I liked how the romance was a main point in the story. I hope it continues in the 3rd book!  

What didn’t I like about Chaos Unleashed? 

I didn’t like how the love interest character wasn’t in much of the story. Hopefully in book 3 there will be more scenes including him. 

I really enjoyed Chaos Unleashed. It was a really quick read for me too! That’s why I’m giving it 5 stars! 

Have you read Chaos Rises (book 1)? 

Will you be reading Chaos Unleashed if you have read Chaos Rises?

City Of Ashes (The Mortal Instruments Book 2) by Cassandra Clare Review

Hi ForeverBookers,  I've just finished reading City Of Ashes and it was really good! I've read this book before again and I didn't think it was very good last time but now I think differently. It had everything from fighting demons, to laugh out loud parts, to heartfelt moments. The story starts from where City Of Bones finished so there will be minor spoilers below.  The characters continue developing in this second book. For example, Clary's best friend, Simon really takes on a new role as a vampire, as well as the other characters maturing too. This was good to see as it gave the story different levels that we haven't seen before. I especially enjoyed reading about Simon's transformations. There's a new character called Maia, who is a werewolf. There's some antagonism between Simon and her as in this series vampires and werewolves don't get on.   We meet Alec and Isabelle's parents here. Maryse, their mother is a strong character, who is angry...

Big Little Lies by Liane Moriarty Review

Hi ForeverBookers,  How are you all today? I've just finished a great contemporary book! 4 Stars! NOTE: There are scenes of abuse and bullying in Big Little Lies so if you're sensitive about either of those topics this book maybe isn't for you.  Big Little Lies tells several stories at once. There's the story about the trivia night that runs throughout, the story of who one of the main character's father is, the story of an abuse victim, a story of a teenage girl putting her virginity up for sail in the internet and the main story for most of the book, little children lying about who bullied another child. All these stories were handled well.  We see the characters, both major and minor be interviewed throughout because of the murder that happened on trivia night. I'll be honest in saying that at the beginning of the book I thought that another character had been killed so it was a surprise to read what actually had happened.  Spoilers belo...

American Royals (#1 American Royals) by Katharine McGee review

Hey ForeverBookers,   I’ve just finished American Royals by Katherine McGee and I LOVED it! If you love scandal and complicated love stories in a contemporary setting, then you will love it as well! Think a royal version of Gossip Girl and you have this book in a nutshell. American Royals follows six characters, all of the new adult age range that come together to create a story of intrigue and romance. There isn’t high action or really a plot outside of the romance which was fine with me as I really enjoy stories just focused on the romance. I appreciated how “American Royals” only focused on the six different characters. There weren’t loads of personalities to get to know, and they all followed the same pattern as they’re all from or have grown up around a certain standing in society. This made the characters easy to follow and understand. It is a character led story, without as I said, much plot.  What there is of a plot of American Royals is taken up with the ascension of ...
