HOLY SH*T!  This is story telling at its BEST!!!  My Soul To Take is utter PERFECTION!!  While I enjoyed Book 1, The Soul Mate, I was blown away by My Soul To Take!!  Seriously amazed.  Madeline’s writing is taken to a whole other level from book 1 to book 2.Madeline tells this story from 2 POVs with the chapters alternating.  At the end of book 1, Trinity was left on her own.  In My Soul To Take, Madeline does a fabulous job of setting a world in a post apocalyptic state.  Trinity tells her story as she tries to survive in a world that has been ruined.  She has been abandoned by Gerik and is out in the real world now- she tried to find the clan and couldn’t.  She is trying to survive among skin eaters and the occasional human she runs into.  The world is abandoned and ruined; there are dead, rotting bodies everywhere; and buildings and stores have been burned and ruined.  Meanwhile, Xan is back at camp devastated and heartbroken; trying to survive without Trinity; drinking his sorrows away.  This is just the tip of the iceberg- there is SO much more to the story.  I mean like SO MUCH more.  More than could ever be explained here.  Which is why you need to read it!The characters we met and loved in The Soul Mate are back but dealing with so much more this time.  Love, loss, heartbreak, despair.  Madeline writes characters that you fall in love with and become emotionally attached to; you can’t help but feel a gamut of emotions for and with them.In her usual fashion, Madeline tells this story as only she can.  Her writing is BRILLIANT.  She uses such vivid detail to describe everything.  Using the wit and humor that I have come to love from her, Madeline makes me smile as I read her stories.  My Soul To Take is INTENSE and I mean that in a GOOD way.No review can adequately do justice to Madeline’s writing.  Her books are a MUST READ.  NO questions asked.  Read My Soul To Take.  You won’t regret it.
