Beautiful Creatures

[amber200419]

I have read this series. Beautiful creatures was an overall good book I was surprised by the content. It was different than any of the books I have read. I would give it 4 out of 5 stars. From there the books just lost my interest it wasn't what I thought they were gonna be.

Ah! I so dislike when I see a movie before I have read the book! That's life I guess. We watched the movie a few months ago, picking it just based on the trailer. I thought that it seemed like I was missing something while we were watching it, but still...

After reading the reviews here, it sounds like the first few books at least are worth reading, so I will have to add them to my list

Is this the same story as the movie Beautiful Creatures? I say the movie and thought the premise was good but did not feel the movie succeeded in convening anything. I hope the books are better.

I've only read the first book so far, but I am hooked. I read the book in about a day (or tried to, I had to sleep sometime...). It was just so enthralling, there was always something going on, never really a dull moment. I can't wait to read the rest of the series and see what happens next!

I really want to read this series. It's on my list. I love the whole paranormal romance thing.

I had just finished reading the series of Beautiful Creatures. I love it. I love reading the point of view of Ethan Wate instead of Lena Duchannes. I wanted to cry when Macon dies, I like noooooo eventually he did not died. Macon was my favorite character of them all. I wish there was a book of him that would give us his point of view. I was extremely happy Abraham dies, he had to die for causing a lot of trouble among families. I wish there was more of this series. I still have the thirst of wanting to know more of Macon. In my opinion Beautiful redemption had to be created due to Amma still owing a debt to the wheel of fate, Ethan fighting for his life, and Lena for changing her destiny. Such romance story could of not had finished with a terrible ending in Beautiful Chaos. This series thought me that everyone will betray you due to their own selfish reasons including your own family.

Hey there. I see this post is from last year, but I want to tell my experience anyway. Me and my boyfriend saw the movie over a year ago and really liked it. Then I bought the 1st book for him, but he never read it cuz it was a bit boring for him. So I took the book from him and started reading it myself and it took me few months to finish it cuz I found it a bit boring at the begining, but the last chapters were so addictive that I just couldn't stop reading. So I downloaded the rest of the saga and this morning I finished the 2nd book and I LOVED IT. I'm so happy Macon is alive again . I can't wait to star reading Beautiful Chaos tonight!

Btw I'm from south america so I've read them all in spanish

This series is a good read for anyone who's looking into the supernatural romance, and it mixes history from the Civil War with the present era. It's interesting to see how the whole story unfolds as it reaches its climax, especially during Lena and Ethan's time apart, where he doesn't even remember their involvement.

I enjoyed this book series, but it isn't my favorite. In fact, I never finished the third book, Beautiful Chaos. But, despite that, I still hold the series in a good opinion. I like how it was simple but still descriptive, and the idea of the story was very good. Maybe I'll even get around to finishing the series.

Beautiful Creatures, book one of The Caster Chronicles series, by Margaret Stohl and Kami Garcia.

I've heard many reviews for this book, both good and bad. In the end, I went out to the bookstores and bought the book anyway.

Beautiful Creatures is one of those major world building books. Usually with world building books, the content is usually blank, however with this book, things are different. People may think that it is all world building and Yes, that's partly true but it is also action packed and fast paced. With the world building the authors went through it very thoroughly and ensured that they didn't leave anything out. The writing style is mainly in the point of view of the male protagonist, Ethan Wate. Towards the end it is told from the point of the female protagonist, Lena Duchannes.

Throughout the book, one can tell a lot character development is taking place. By following the storyline we can see how much the characters really affect each other. Even the minor characters go through a lot of development. When comparing the characters from the start of the book to the end of the book, they are almost completely different people.

I like this book, I havent read it but I have it in my reading list and iPad and plan to read it soon Will be back for discussion!

This is one of my least favorite books of all time unfortunately. I have all three books on my shelf and could only manage to finish the first one. The main character just wasn't believable as a male protagonist and the romance between he and Lena had no spark or intrigue. The writing itself wasn't terrible, but held no depth nor interest for me. All in all it was just a boring book in my opinion.

This was recommended to me by a friend and I had my doubts. So I started to read and wow. The way it surrounds you in this world of the supernatural trying to fit into a small country town is remarkable. I love how the names of the supernatural are different. Instead of the cliche witches you have casters. It is quite unique and the love story is touching.
One of the best series I have read and I'm upset more people didn't enjoy it.
