I'm so glad that I was introduced to Karli through an Author event online because otherwise I am not sure if I would have found her books!This is the first book in the series and if you are like me I must read the series in order and preferably one after the other so I suggest the same for this series. Another thing most first books in a series has is back story and character build. There is a lot of back story and character build in the beginning but it is necessary to understand the rest of the books. I know some people gave up, but then what was the point of reading. Karli certainly has done the research necessary to present Alyssa's powers and the traditions of the Coven correctly.Alyssa is eagerly awaiting for her time to enter the Arcane (an exclusive "university" for Witches), but until then she attends a public high school cloaked to protect her identity from humans. Cloaking made it easier for humans not to notice them, but for some reason one did and it changed her whole world. She did not know that her meeting Marc would lead to so much controversy.The thrilling and suspenseful path they endure is an emotional one. You as a reader will also experience the laughs, tears and angst.I often think or perhaps I am haunted by the images of what Alyssa went through near the end. I didn't realize how many times I was holding my breathe as I read and the tears I would cry were unexpected as well.Crescent Bound is definitely worth a read and I would suggest to be in a quiet and relaxed atmosphere so you can submerge yourself into the knowledge and storyline!5 *wink* ReadBook Flirts by Jessi
