Welcome! This is The Review, my review on YA books that I have read. I try to Blog on every book I read after I read them and I read as fast as I can but it takes me a while to read a book if it's long. I use books to escape and I hope you can escape into books yourself because it's the best place to be for me, even though most of the books I read are quite dark. Just warning you. Leave comments!

The Lost Saint by Bree Despain

Blurb:
Grace Divine made the ultimate sacrifice to cure Daniel Kalbi. She was infected with the werewolf curse while trying to save him and lost her beloved brother in the process.
Desperate to find Jude, Grace befriends Talbot, a newcomer to town. But as the two grow closer, Grace's relationship with Daniel is put in danger - in more ways than one.
Unaware of the dark path she is walking, Grace begins to give into the wolf inside her - not realising that the enemy has returned and a deadly trap is about to be sprung.
 
When I started this book I was hooked, not wanting to put it down but sleep and school came in the way and my teachers did threaten to consficate it. It was the same way with the first installment of the Dark Divine novels, I went into solitary in my room and refused to come out until I had finished. But this book is an excellent sequel to this series. Most sequels are bad because when an author thinks they have a story to come out of it, they don't but my God Bree Despain did and she has left leaveway for a lot more. The twists and turns make you hate Grace but then four pages later you want to hug her and tell everything was going to be okay. People she trusts could be out against her and you have no idea who's her friend and who's her enemy until the last few pages. I found the love story between Daniel and Grace heartbreaking and it just wanted to make me cry toward the end.
I would totally recommend this book to anyone who loves werewolf fiction because it has so much action and so much despare that it makes putting the book down impossible
