I loved the idea of females being the powerful sex in this world, goddesses and such it was fun to see. Zoey and Stevie Rae really grow and change embracing there gifts given to them (lots of girl power).
Aphrodite I have to say was one of my favorite characters in the first book she definitely is a hag from hell (trust fund baby) but she has a total transformation with out loosing her personality later in the series! What had me a little confused was I thought these Vampyres acted more like witches with the elements, rituals, circles etc not necessarily a bad thing just totally different from what I expected. Also kids who are marked its down to DNA, that took a while to get used to...
PC Casts characters are strong I liked them alot especially the friends zoey makes they bring a lot of humor and are loyal.. Damien is a firm favorite.
The use of language and sexual content also had me questioning who these books were aimed at... not a 13yr old that's for sure.
I did like the use of pop culture although at times it was a little like over kill...
If you see these books give them a go I liked them, just don't expect Cassandra Clare standard of writing because its not but in my opinion still worth the read.
