Book Review: 666 Park Avenue

666 Park Avenue: A Novel

Fun, Sassy, & Sexy!


666 Park Avenue: A Novel was so much fun to read. I read it cover to cover in two days. I could have finished it sooner but I didn’t start reading until late at night and had to take a sleep break but I picked up the book right away the next day. I have to say I haven’t been this excited over a paranormal book since Twilight or even Vampire Diaries and can’t wait for the next installment The Dark Glamour: A 666 Park Avenue Novel which according to amazon is not until August of this year. Come on August!
Jane Boyle’s character is funny in her thoughts. I chuckled a lot as she went through her day to day stuff. Aside from the whole having powers and being a witch thing I found I could related to her as she saw herself. As an awkward individual who wanted to be heard. Malcolm her lover and fiancĂ© is just so very dashing with his sexyness and family secrets. Quite literally sweeping Jane off her feet at their first encounter and not letting her catch her breath for most of the book.
We travel from France to New York in the first few builder chapters and then the ball really gets rolling. Starting a new life and trying to figure out the whole witch business in secret Jane makes some new friends and grows in her own confidence.
There were a few areas of the book that I found to be a little confusing and that was with Malcolm’s whole family. They seemed to shift together and were hard for me to recognize with exception to Lynne and one or two others. However there were a few plot twists that I really didn’t see coming which excited me. The ending and climax of the book I did see one missed opportunity of gaining power during a fight scene in the mansion. The ending felt a little rushed for me but also was a great cliff hanger. This is why I can’t wait until August to see what Jane does next. All in all I really liked the book and how it flowed and I cannot wait to read the next installment! =-)

Until Next Time, SoCal Marisa
