Book Review: Full Moon - Rachel Hawthorne


I may be promised to another... but thoughts of Rafe consume me. I don't know how much longer I can resist.
Lindsey is wild and reckless, a natural rebel - maybe because her entire life was laid out for her even before she was born. Her parents are among the most powerful members of the Dark Guardians, an ancient tribe of werewolves, and they arranged Lindsey's betrothal to Connor long ago. The next full moon is coming all too soon, and then her commitment to Connor will be final - no turning back. She should be happy... So why can't she stop thinking about gorgeous, brooding Rafe?
When a dangerous threat on the pack escalates, so do tensions between Connor and Rafe. A fight over Lindsey is imminent, but will it be to the death?
- From the back of the book.

Lindsey's whole life had always been planned out for her, right from when she was small. She was promised to Connor, and she couldn't think of anyone else, until she started thinking about Rafe. And that's where it got complicated.

I think the blurb of this book gives a lot of the story away. It tells you about the love triangle, and about the ending. I won't say what else it gives away, in case you didn't realise what it meant... Anyway, back to the review.

Full Moon is told from Lindsey's point of view, instead of Kayla's, like the first book. I like this, because you get more insight to the characters, and it's easier to understand what goes on in each of their heads. Also, you get a totally different view on everything, and for Hawthorne to be able to write like that, so different every time, is amazing.

Full Moon was just as good as Moonlight. There were just as many twists and turns, with one massive surprise at the end, that I wasn't expecting at all. There is something happening all the time, and there is never a dull moment reading this book.

The plot is well thought out and has no hole, and the writing is easy to read and interesting. I really enjoyed it, and I would recommend it to any werewolf loving teen. It's really good, and leaves you on a cliffhanger, longing for the next book, Dark of the Moon, which I can't wait to get my hands on.

I give it 4 Feet!
