5.0 out of 5 stars Leaving it behind..it's a hard thing to do!
Reviewed in the United States on September 26, 2011

Well, obviously J.L. Bryan intended for The Paranormals to just be a trilogy, and truly the characters did sort of complete their arcs...but..there could always be more (can I get a show of hands?). I like that about it, Bryan created an amazing series that ends things well, but still leaves the possibilities wide open. Books like that make you really think about the "what ifs". Now, this is not to say that the story doesn't have an ending because it does. He could have done it so many different ways, but he chose a good path to go. As I was reading, with a heavy heart because I knew they were the last pages of Jenny's story, I thought about how it was all going to come together, or fall apart at the end. Would I be disappointed, happy, angry? I knew no matter what I'd be a little sad. Well, if are holding out to see what the reviews are because you are so afraid of dissappointment and anger, I urge you to read on! J.L. Bryan answers pretty much all of the questions that have been raised in the first two books. We learn about who Jenny is, and more importantly Jenny learns about who she really is, though the journey takes her to some dark places. I wanted to be team Alexander..but deep in my heart I just knew I couldn't be. The thing about bad boys, is that they usually are... well bad. And sometimes good people make some really..really..REALLY bad mistakes!(Seth you jerk!).. (You've Tommy Nightmare right?). Does that make good people bad too? How does Jenny decide which is bad and which is good when things are so confusing. Who can she really trust? Can she even trust herself? All will be answered by the end..I really am trying hard to not give to much away.

I love how the overall theme of these books is sort of how do you define what is really good, and what is really evil. Jenny has a "power" that truly seems to be about as evil as you can get, and yet she isn't evil (though she does make some bad choices!!). Ashleigh the super villian is power corrupt with her "gift" that should be something really good.(Sorry team Ashleigh fans, you will be disappointed!)(Go Jenny! Alexander Death seems to really focus on the past. How does your past define you? How will you let it define you? In the end Jenny has to decide whether or not she will let her past lives determine who she is today, and whether or not the present life is going to be lived based on who she was, or who she really wants to be. J.L. Bryan is truly a talented author in how he has created these underlying themes within all of his well developed characters! Since we know they all reincarnate there is always hope there will be more right?..?RIGHT? Oh and I would like to say a big thank you to J.L. Bryan for not letting Ashleigh be born again in a certain character's "life"(something to do with Heaven..hint hint) like I was fearing..you know like some Vincent Price laughing moment at the very end of the book. *Whew*..

I enjoyed this book a lot more than the second in the series, Tommy Nightmare; it was also more of a standalone, which was an improvement. I’m a firm believer that all books in a series should be able to standalone to some degree, because you never know when a new reader will be introduced into your series.

Technically speaking, like the other books in the Paranormals series, this book was well written. The writing was clean, easy-to-follow, engaging, and didn’t suffer from a lot of errors (as seems to be the norm with e-books these days). The story was jam-packed with tension, conflict, mystery, and romance—and there were more than a few times when I waffled on which side of the fence my loyalties lie. There was a lot of jumping around between characters, as with the other books, but I found it a little more engaging this time around. A lot more time was spent with Jenny (who is by far my favorite character), and it was nice to spend a lot less time with Ashleigh (the one character I truly can’t stand). If you’ve read the previous books in this series (and you should) you’ll find this installment a lot easier to follow than the second one, and it has some truly fantastic moments with Jenny and Alexander.

Now, from the parental view of things: There was a lot more adult content in this book that the previous two. There’s always been a few hints of drugs/sex in the books, but there was an egregious amount of bad decision making concerning cocaine and hallucinogenic mushrooms in this book (with few consequences to balance it out), and quite a few sexual moments. The sexy bits weren’t nearly as bad as most romance novels, but if you’re looking into buying this series for your Teen, you should be aware of the content first.

Last, but not least: the world building was really intriguing in this installment. It was nice to get more background on the paranormal (especially the plague-bringer) and get a peek into who these beings are and where they came from. If you’ve been waiting to learn more about where these teen’s powers came from, you’re going to get a big dose of knowledge in this book that I think was fascinating.

Overall, I really enjoyed the book. I still hold the first book in the series as my favorite, but this one was certainly better than the second, and it had a great ending. If you enjoy gritty paranormal fantasy romance geared towards the new adult crowd, you may really enjoy this series. Give it a look.

5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing!

In the beginning of this book I thought having Alexander in Jenny's life was a good thing. But then bit by bit we discover how Alexander is really like and how him knowing about his past lives has shaped him. I wasn't really liking who Jenny was becoming because of Alexander.

Funny really that Alexander doesn't like Ashleigh because she's manipulative cause he's certainly a master in manipulation himself!

Alexander is an interesting charachter to read about and getting a glimpse of Jenny like she was in past lives with the influence of Alexander was terrifying.

I can't wait to see what the next (and sadly last) book of the series takes us!

This is my favourite book of the 'Paranormals' series so far. I really liked the 'Alexander' character, although he is not exactly one of the good guys. There are also some quite hot scenes between Alexander and Jenny which spice up the story. Looking forward to book 4 :-)

5.0 out of 5 stars Continueing the awesome.

I was so beautifully surprised by this series. For a series of books aimed at a younger audience it was truly lifechanging. If you have ever heard the term 'book hangover' (Inability to start a new book because you're still living in he last book's world) but never experienced it, be prepared! For this series will cause one in the best of ways. The writing style is simple and yet brings across a depth of emotion and detail that is staggering. The world and relationships within it are well formed and fleshed out making this a series I would reccommend to anyone and everyone, age regardless!
I have to admit my favourite aspect of this book (apart from the actual storyline of course) is the relationships. Unlike other paranormal YA book sthere is no insta-love. Hallelujah! Even with the *SPOILERS* reincarnation aspect *END OF SPOILRES* adding a depth and history to the love between characters the relationships themselves require effort and work, much like real relationships. It is so srare that I find a book with so little faults or that I have enjoyed so whole heartedly, let alone an entire series.
If paranormal books aren't your thing, I would still reccommend this series for the aforementioned relationship aspect. It's so rare to find a book, especially aimed at a younger audience, which depicts healthy relationships (and of course the opposite in comparison) especially one with such an awesome storyline.
I repeat: I can't reccommend this series enough!! I wish I could give it more stars.

After reading the last two books my comments after book 2 was I hope the storyline still grabs you and also the plot and I hoped that the author did not just drag it out for the purpose of another book.
Well what a great read I really enjoyed this book and my fears were put to rest. I am just about to download the last of the books and hope it lives up to the last 3...

Mit "Alexander Death" hat der Autor dann doch noch das Versprechen eingelöst, dass er mit "Jenny Pox" gemacht hatte. Ich war vom mittleren Teil der Serie nicht ganz so hingerissen und freue mich, dass er sich gefangen hat.

Nach den Ereignissen im letzten Band teilten sich die Protagonisten in verschiedene Gruppen auf.

Jenny ist mit Alexander irgendwo in Mexiko und kommt endlich den Geheimnissen um ihre früheren Leben näher. Je mehr sie über ihre tausende male reinkarnierte Seele erfährt, umso verändert sie sich. Alexander scheint gefallen an dieser Transformation zu finden und man kann sich als Leser des Gefühls nicht erwehren, dass er nicht nur gute Absichten verfolgt. Nach einer Weile fragt man sich aber ob Jenny das überhaupt noch stören würde...?

Einige der Szenen zwischen Alexander und Jenny sind glühend heiß und überschreiten definitiv alles, was ich bis jetzt im Bereich der YA Literatur gelesen habe. Nicht, dass junge Erwachsene damit nicht umgehen könnten, aber wer prüderes gewohnt ist sollte sich hier lieber anschnallen.

Seth ist inzwischen seit einiger Zeit an der Uni, hat aber immer noch nicht aufgehört nach Jenny zu suchen. In seiner Verzweiflung beauftragt er eine Spezialfirma die nach Kidapping-Opfern sucht. Er kann sich einfach nicht vorstellen, dass Jenny solange weggbleiben würde ohne sich bei ihrem Vater zu melden.

Aus dem passiven und relativ langweiligen Seth wird hier ein Getriebener mit einer Mission. Er will Jenny um jeden Preis finden und lässt sich von nichts und niemanden aufhalten. Diese Weiterentwicklung hat mir sehr gefallen.

Tommy und Esmeralda/Ashleigh verfolgen weiterhin Ashleigh's Pläne. Sogar dem etwas unterbelichteten Tommy wird allerdings langsam klar, dass Ashleigh Menschen nur benutzt und auch ganz schnell ihre Meinung ändert wenn sie nicht mehr nützlich sind.

Alles läuft auf eine großartige Konfrontation am Ende des Buches hinaus in der sich die Schicksale unserer Helden entscheiden. Werden die alten Loyalitäten halten oder werden Jenny und Seth am Ende doch füreinader entscheiden und weiterhin daran arbeiten menschlicher zu werden?

Der Autor beschäftigt sich hier mit wirklich interessanten Fragen zu Macht und Menschlichkeit, unglaublich wenn man bedenkt dass diese Trilogie mit einem Mädchen begann, dass niemanden anfassen durfte.

Inzwischen ist ein vierter Band erschienen, das ist wohl dem großen Erfolg geschuldet. Ich persönlich fand diesen Abschluss zur Geschichte sehr rund und kann mir nicht wirklich vorstellen was als nächstes kommen soll. Ich bin aber neugierig, und dass ist sicher ein gutes Zeichen.
