The Reckoning by Kelly Armstrong

My name is Chloe Saunders. I'm fifteen, and I would love to be normal.

But normal is one thing I'm not.

For one thing, I'm having these feelings for a certain antisocial werewolf and his sweet-tempered brother—who just happens to be a sorcerer—but, between you and me, I'm leaning toward the werewolf.

Not normal.

My friends and I are also on the run from an evil corporation that wants to get rid of us—permanently.

Definitely not normal.

And finally, I'm a genetically altered necro-mancer who can raise the dead, rotting corpses and all, without even trying.

As far away from normal as it gets (Barnesandnoble.com).


Can I just say I can't believe this is the last one! I didn't realize it was the last book in the trilogy because I thought it was a series, not a trilogy. I want more! This book was the best of all three of the books.

In this one, Chloe gets much better with her powers and gets into more trouble. Her and her pack of friends are on the run and but they can really handle themselves. I feel really bad for Simon because he likes Chloe so much but she doesn't like him. Chloe and Derek get closer. I think this is the first time that I have read a book and thought the main character was with the wrong boy. But, I think that is because Derek creeped me out so much in the first book and Simon is so sweet.

I liked the whole werewolf thing, though. I am kind of excited to get into Armstrong's other series, Otherworld so that I can read more about her werewolves. It starts with Bitten.

This trilogy has an exciting world to dive into, with magic, werewolves, necromancers, adventure and a little love.

The only disappointment is the way it ended. It can't be over, can it? No, I want another book! The ending is driving me crazy. I want more answers, more story. Armstrong has a lot of other books that I am ready to get into.

Overall: 4/5
