Review: Gargoyles
Rating: 3 out of 5

This was a quick read and was decently entertaining.I liked the whole gargoyle concept. It was definitely unique and not something I had read before. I thought it was done well, and I am looking forward to hopefully learning more about them as I continue this series.The romance was kind of shallow to me. It reminded me of too many other YA books where the hero is ignoring the heroine but she is falling in love with him while he is ignoring her. Think Daniel and Luce in the Fallen series. It was kind of like that. However it was not nearly as drawn out since they only had the space of one book to get together rather than a whole series.I think I liked Valor, but I would have liked something from his POV. The gargoyles were trying to adjust to life after basically sleeping for 800 years. I think a look into their view would have been beneficial. Plus, I wanted to see Mackenzie through Valor's eyes. She was yet another in a long string of main characters who do not think highly of themselves, so I would have liked seeing what Valor thought.Anyway, this was quick and not a bad read.3.5 stars
