Goodreads Summary:
There is need. And then there is Fate...
Being destined to become some kind of supernatural electrical outlet isn't exactly awesome--especially when Alexandria's "other half" is everywhere she goes. Seth's in her training room, outside her classes, and keeps showing up in her bedroom--so not cool. Their connection does have some benefits, like staving off her nightmares of the tragic showdown with her mother, but it has no effect on what Alex feels for the forbidden, pure-blooded Aiden. Or what he will do--and sacrifice--for her.
When daimons infiltrate the Covenants and attack students, the gods send furies--lesser gods determined to eradicate any threat to the Covenants and to the gods, and that includes the Apollyon... and Alex. And if that and hordes of aether-sucking monsters didn't blow bad enough, a mysterious threat seems willing to do anything to neutralize Seth, even if that means forcing Alex into servitude... or killing her.
When the gods are involved, some decisions can never, ever be undone.
MY THOUGHTS;
Pure had one of the most brilliant plot I've read!! So many twists and turns filled with action and mysterious aura. It had me entertained throughout the entire time I read it! We see more of Seth, one where he's more sweet/soft but don't worry he's still the cocky, arrogant guy as before. He really does kknow how to lighten the situation and helps Alex after something traumatic happens. And of course, there is jealousy between Aiden and Seth...Speaking of Aiden, he really does manages to capture you hearts. Oh you'll just love "Zoo Scene"!! It's too cute and adorable!!!
Alex is the fighter as she's always been and I really admire her for that. It's just that I felt her character felt kinda off and I don't know changed her somehow tat got me annoyed with her. Like at the end...but that might've just been me. Anyways, any J.L.A or Covenant fan will just love this book. But know that while it may be an awesome, kickbutt, fighting/finding bad guys, romantic book, there will be tragedy, as I hinted before and your heart will tug for Alex....J.L.A never fails to impress me!
“Ever since I’ve met you, I’ve wanted to break every rule.” Aiden turned away, the muscles in his neck tensing. He sighed. “You’ll become the center of someone’s world one day. And he’ll be the luckiest son of a b*tch on this earth.” – Aiden
I love the cover, I can't wait to read it. Thanks for the review ;)
