5 out of 5I had the pleasure of meeting the author of Taking Back Sunday at the GA Indie Author Event last month. Cristy Rey is a total book nerd and I love her for it! I would have gladly sat and talked with her all day. Normally I am not one to gravitate towards New Adult, but Taking Back Sunday is paranormal and that trumps New Adult in my book. So I took a chance that the cool author I met would also give me a cool book. And what an awesome concept and storyline!Taking Back Sunday trumps a lot of books I have read this year. Fantastic pacing, likeable characters and a well thought out back story. There is also palpable chemistry and beautiful imagery in this gem by Cristy Rey and I am now a junkie in need of a fix because the next book in the Incarnate series doesn’t come out until September. But I am coming to see that the wait is worth it when you get a book that is not just a good story. It’s edited, formatted and polished. I will gladly wait for quality versus their unpolished counterparts that seem to be more about quantity. Well done, Cristy Rey.Oh, and while I am jonesing for my fix, I will be reading the prequel novelette, Edge of Seventeen, that is offered free on multiple platforms. It’s a short look at events that occur before the events in Taking Back Sunday.
