Dew Book Reviews Beautiful Darkness… Beautiful Darkness is a sequel to Beautiful Creatures, a book reviewed by the Dew in March of 2010. At the time of that review, I stated that this Young Adult book was definitely open for a sequel… and here it is!
I will say that I really feel the first book should be read before opening up the newest. There was a lot of back story I already knew that helped me to jump into this one. You might be a little lost without that information on hand.

Hub Pages … This book was quite enjoyable. I really enjoyed that the book was told by Ethan. It is great seeing a male lead telling the story. The description in the book of the plantations and the town was well done. It got me picturing the scenes before me as I read. The characters were all quite funny and very realistic. I loved Ethan’s old crazy aunts.
The story keeps me wanting to continue on. I had a very hard time putting the book down. The book also grabbed you right from the start which is a plus for me. I don’t like reading a book that can’t catch my attention from the beginning and this book does just that. It keeps you wanting more. I say read it and you will enjoy it.
