Prowl Blog Tour: Review and Interview

Friday, September 14, 2012

Title: Prowl
Author: Amber Garza
Series: Prowl Trilogy
Genre/s: Young Adult, Supernatural,


Synopsis:


Seventeen-year-old Mackenzie Smith is sent away to spend a boring summer at her grandma's. But then she meets Wesley. He tells her exactly what she wants to hear and has information about her past that no one else knows. It's almost like he can read her mind.

Only Wesley isn't who he seems.

By the time Mackenzie discovers his true identity it may be too late. She's in too deep and he won't let her go. Now Mackenzie must call on the strongest power of all in order to save her life.

My Thoughts:

The thing I like about this book is that, it was believable. 

MacKenzie is your typical misunderstood teenage girl who is in constant need of love and attention. The problems she encountered in this book just reflects the problems of our present generation (i.e. broken family, bad influence, teen angst etc.). It also showed the things that could happen to a child if she were in bad company.

I think this book is a nice eye opener to teens and parents. And I really think everyone should read it, no matter what their religion is.

My Rating:
