Good afternoon peeps , its a dreary day here on the farm a great day to read . I have a new author for you Here is ELEMENTRIS by Christine Mobley
BOOK BLURB
There are people born in this world with a powerful connection to the earth itself...
They have an unbreakable and extraordinary bond. Every seven years, five people are born on the same day, at the exact same time. The elements bind them; earth, fire, wind, water, and spirit. They call them, Elementris.
Ava Vangeretta is seventeen years old and different. Unlike most born of the element, she was born alone. She has the power of all five elements. Ava is the first True Elementris to be born in many years. As her eighteenth birthday approaches she is faced with a choice. Give up this rare gift and live the normal life she has always craved or accept it and challenge the current True Elementris in a battle to the death!
Ava's past haunts her as she struggles to decide. In her present, the seasons are colliding together, storms are destroying lives, and love is a dangerous curse. The current True Elementris is behind it all and she will do whatever necessary to keep Ava from making it to her eighteenth birthday. Ava's decision threatens the lives of the two people she cares about most. Can you choose between love and friendship?
MY REVIEW
Ava Vangeretta isn't your average seventeen year old. She is different and has the power of all five elements. She is a true Elementris the first one born in a long time. As her eighteenth birthday comes up she has to make a decision does she want to give up her powers and have a life a normal life or accept her fate and challenge the current Elementris to a battle to the death. She has to figure out if love is a dangerous curse. Will Ava's decision threaten the lives of those who love and she loves . Can she truly between love and friendship
Ava is a sweet girl who is trying to come to terms with her magic and if she should really keep her magic. She was left alone when her mom couldn't handle what she has become . She has a inner fight with herself and when her friend Brea is trouble she helps her out with a protection spell. She becomes a fighter for those she cares for and when push comes to shove she will do whatever it takes to save those she loves . She has a cast of characters that surround her and help her. Alec is you typical guy who will help you out when he can but there is something that you just can't really trust him, Each of these characters are well written and they grow as the story moves on. I can't wait to see where the author takes them in up coming books.
This is a good read that I read in an evening. The author keeps us entertained and flipping pages . I like the way the author uses the elemental side of witch craft and calls the natural part of the craft. We also get to see how a teen can handle the pressure of what is to come. This could be a great book to read with your older teen and you for the fall and winter reading list
