PARANORMALCY #3 : ENDLESSLY
Evie's paranormal past keeps coming back to haunt her. A new director at the International Paranormal Containment Agency wants to drag her back to headquarters. The Dark Faerie Queen is torturing humans in her poisonous realm. And supernatural creatures keep insisting that Evie is the only one who can save them from a mysterious, perilous fate.
The clock is ticking on the entire paranormal world. And its fate rests solely in Evie's hands.
REVIEW:
As an ending to a trilogy this is a roller-coaster of action and emotions.
Evie comes to a point where she has to make choices that will influance a lot of supernatural creatures.
I like that Vivian has a more prominent role in this book, she has a purpose and has changed a lot from the girl who wanted to kill every paranormal (in the understanding that she was doing them a favor).
This trilogy introduced me to a lot of paranormal creatures that are almost never shown in other fantasy books, and all of them have their own special part in this book.
Lend and Evie have a steady relationhip, but it won't be that way when Evie reveals to Lend that he is immortal, this is easily and beautifully solved, but I won't tell how.

SUPERNATURALLY
PARANORMALCY #2: SUPERNATURALLY
Evie finally has the normal life she’s always longed for. But she’s shocked to discover that being ordinary can be...kind of boring. Just when Evie starts to long for her days at the International Paranormal Containment Agency, she’s given a chance to work for them again. Desperate for a break from all the normalcy, she agrees.
But as one disastrous mission leads to another, Evie starts to wonder if she made the right choice. And when Evie’s faerie ex-boyfriend Reth appears with devastating revelations about her past, she discovers that there’s a battle brewing between the faerie courts that could throw the whole supernatural world into chaos. The prize in question? Evie herself.

REVIEW:
As a second book in a trilogy it's certainly interesting and more actionfilled as the first.
Evie finds out a lot of interesting and shocking things from her past that she never knew about.
Evie broke free from her ties to IPCA at the end of Paranormalcy and is now living a fairly normal life and having a steady relationship with Lend, but don't think she can get away from IPCA that easily.
Meanwhile she is also starting a war between the sealie and unsealie fearie courts, which she isn't entirely aware of in the beginning.
Fun and actionfilled with lots of interesting turns, a read that would be great in the summer as a fun and quick read.

But Evie's about to realize that she may very well be at the center of a dark faerie prophecy promising destruction to all paranormal creatures.
So much for normal.
Evie's always thought of herself as a normal teenager, even though she works for the International Paranormal Containment Agency, her ex-boyfriend is a faerie, she's falling for a shape-shifter, and she's the only person who can see through paranormals' glamours.

REVIEW:
I liked this book, I didn't love it, it wasn't mind-blowing but it was a very enjoyable read.
Kiersten White managed to hook you from the first sentence, something I haven't seen much.
Evie is a lovely main character, she isn't perfect and she doesn't pretend to be. She's a girly girl with an edge, a lovely change from the kick-ass heroine's that are usually the main character. I'm not saying that Evie isn't kick-ass, she is, but not in the way that for example Rose Hathaway (vampire academy) is.
Lend is great as a love interest, sweet, loyal and on top of that he is a shapeshifter (not the person-turns-into-animal kind, but the person-can change-into-anyone-he-wants kind), and Reth is the perfect bad boyfriend form the past, as a fearie he isn't all that bad but he is centainly not the good guy either..
IPCA is a very original take on the supernatural genre, the international paranormal containment agency and the bag-and-tag (it reminded me a little of a season 4 Buffy the vampire slayer episode, did enyone else have that?)
Next to the fun characters is the plot also interesting on it's own, something paranormal that was very new to me.
This book mainly introduces you to everyone and the new world you enter, but it's certainly not boring.
