I wish there were half ratings because I would have given this 3.5 instead of 3. I love that this series hasn't taken a nose dive like a lot of series do (and for a while it seemed that Harrison was getting in to a funk). Positive things about the book: Rachel is growing up and she's not making as many immature decisions as she use to. Ivy isn't as volatile as she normally is. There is more Trent and Al which is always a bonus and this book is so action packed that you'll blow through it in an afternoon. Not so positive things about the book: because it is so action packed there isn't much of a plot. All I knew was that Rachel was going to go on a cross country trip for her hearing which turned in to a quest for Trent and then unleashing a demon and all of a sudden Al kind of, maybe, sort of has a heart. Maybe. It was just a lot of things at once and I wish Harrison had spent more time developing things to their fullest. What I loved: Trent and Rachel! Al and Rachel! I don't know who I want her to end up with but I just want her to be an adult enough to stop blaming hormones for her attraction and just own up to the fact that she finds someone attractive. I'm actually rooting for some Al/Rachel time more than Trent/Rachel I felt, that out of all the books where Trent plays a large part, he became a real person to me. Most of the time male lead characters become static (like Pierce who bounces between being the lover and betrayer) but Trent went through the whole gamut. He was confident, scared, sad, unsure, content... he had real people feelings and at times I thought he was a jerk and then totally conniving and then a coward. Trent just came alive for me. Things that bothered me: The initial airport scene, everyone but Rachel knew that she wasn't going to be able to get on the plane so it annoyed the piss out of me when that many pages were wasted for no reason other than for everyone to treat Rachel like a child. Not cool. If I had been Rachel I would have been so mad I would have told everyone to fuck off and gone alone. (Rachel is suppose to be this awesome witch but everyone treats her like a child). Rachel's new catchphrase of, "Hey, hi." Unless I purposefully blocked it out I don't remember her saying this. I know that in real life people pick up different sayings but in a book series catchphrases become contrite really easily and new catchphrases almost never work. Also, the showdown's with Ku'Sox were not up to par. I felt like, action wise, I wasn't sure what was going down and how people were placed. For a demon that's allegedly as badass as Ku'Sox is I kind of didn't see it. I think he could have been a big-bad for at least two books. Ku'Sox also seemed silly because he's suppose to be this uber-demon and I don't think proper attention was paid to him and developing his back story. We're just suppose to go with the fact that he's been imprisoned for his own good and other than getting revenge there isn't much of a motive for Ku'Sox to wreck the havoc he does. Because of this, I found him annoying. Rachel's hearing was a joke. Plain and simple. I wasn't buying it at all and Pierce's reinstated position was almost more farfetched than Ku'Sox. But whatever. It just means more Pierce in Rachel's life which mean's more Al. I like Al. Overall I think it was an engaging book that had some holes but it makes me excited for the next book. Rachel is a demon now (sort of) and Trent isn't completely a DB and Al is going to be in the story more which makes me phenomenally happy.
