Why:I’m a big fan of Brynn Myers, the author. Everything she wrote, I want to try it! I love her creativity, the sexiness in her scenes description and most of all her sense of humor. She has that kind of attraction on readers that crave paranormal romance stories. She’s able to pull me fast into the action with an attractive and mysterious intrigue and she knows how to stir many feelings inside of me during my read!Expectations:With a title like The Life and Death of Jorja Graham, I was expecting something tragically mixed with a lot of suspense. The presence of a strong heroine plus an alpha male I will instantly fall in love with. I expected a lot of paranormal aspects, phenomenons, actions and sizzling scenes!What Stood Out:The whole story was interesting; the plot was involving and the scenes intoxicating. Even if there aren’t any explicit sex scenes, the author let the reader with his own imagination, which is different from many paranormal romance stories. It’s even different from the first series by Brynn Myers has offer; Prophecies of the Nine.The characters are typical human being with no strange or paranormal past and Jorja is the perfect representation of the good girl next door. Even with a non-easy family history, the girl has some spunk and wit, which I adore about her.I wish there was more paranormal elements through the story. While I was reading, I got this impression that something was about to come out, but each time, this aspect was remaining in the dark. I thought it would be more obvious, but Brynn Myers really wanted to keep it as a secret until the end! By then, I couldn’t put the book down, wanting to know what would happen to our main characters and what would be the paranormal aspect!Favorite Character:My favorite character was the enigmatic Corbin. I wish I could have say the same thing about Jorja, but nothing in particular stood out from her until it’s too late, I was already into Corbin! Corbin on the other hand was a mysterious stranger until the very end. Until everything is revealed, he stays a mystery and I liked to imagine what the big secret about him was. Nothing in the previous pages can foretell what the author has planned all this time! Corbin has many secrets and an ultimate goal by forcing his ways in Jorja’s life. I just wish I could have learned more about his true self and intention before the very end!The End:The ending was the most exciting part of this book, but also the most unpredictable to me. I wasn’t hoping a different ending, in fact the title tells us all, but this one really surprised me nonetheless. We discover many different things and secrets about many character of this story. Plus, a new character makes its appearance and I was kind of shocked (in a good way). I read the last chapters with eagerness, willing to sacrifice any other books just to know what would happen to Jorja, Corbin and this new character. Every reader will be astonished by this ending and Ms. Myers offers them an epilogue on her blog to satisfy their curiosity and hunger. I just hope that I will be able to read a sequel to this incredible story.Romance: 3.5/5Hotness: 2/5
