Taken at Dusk A Shadow Falls Novel C C Hunter Books

Finally read Taken at Dusk by C.C. Hunter and it was fabulous! It's been soooo long since I read Awake at Dawn since I read that as an ARC, but with helpful snippets of recap, I was able to get the gist of the last book remembered!

Taken at Dusk was truly fabulous! Kiley is excited about being at the Camp when it turns into a school during the non summer months, and is happy. She has a great boyfriend--Lucas, who I truly adore! Great friends, an awesome camp leader. But Kiley's world is still recovering from a recent shaking. She was kidnapped by a somewhat psychotic vamp who was in love with her, whose grandfather wanted to kill her. Her ghost father shows up. Derek left. Things were just chaotic.

And they still kind of are. First Kiley is trying to meet her father's adoptive parents, when she meets them, she gets an odd feeling. But that's only the beginning of her problems. After receiving the cryptic message from the ghost, she doesn't know what to believe. Things are happening at camp, changes and everything and apparently Kiley is still very much in danger. She also really wants to help the ghost out, for she seems to be suffering memory problems. Her appearance constantly changes.

There was a lot to learn in this book. Kiley is still adamant about discovering what she is. She battles to keep her old life and her new life separate, which can be hard on Parents' Day when Kiley gets an extra surprise visit.

I absolutely adore this series! I can't ever get enough of Lucas! Again, I am a sucker for childhood friendships reuniting! I have lost sooooo many good childhood friends because they moved so shortly after our friendship started, and seeing Kiley getting to be with Lucas again just touches my heart!

Lucas is a good boyfriend too! I'll admit, there are still some issues with his being a werewolf and Kylie being...something unknown! Kylie realizes this too in some ways, and she has it pointed out to her constantly by that b with an itch,--Della and Miranda's words--Fredericka! Lucas for the majority of the book has to battle his wolfy side since the full moon is nearly upon them. And as he explains it, everything gets heightened at that time. So when he has romantic interludes with Kiley, he struggles to keep himself under control. Although at times, Kiley wonders if she wants him to keep control!

We also get to see Miranda and Della develop some of their own love lives! Although Miranda more so than Della.

The other characters were as awesome as ever! Perry, oh Perry! How I adore that shapeshifter! He loves Miranda and does everything he can to get his emotions under control. Della, poor Della. We see her struggling to be like she was before being vampy, but it's hard. Yet she does try, she wants to find that balance of happiness and acceptance of who she is.

Throughout the novel, we are wondering who or what is stalking Kylie. She's had too many close calls. Also, the mystery with the ghost gets huge as well.

The ending, ohhhhhh the ending! It. Was. Epic.

We finally learn about who was stalking Kylie and why. And at the very very end, like literally the second to last page, we learn what Kylie is! Awesome, yes? Well, yes, but then there are just more questions as to what that means! And then of course there is the new ghost appearing that looks familiar, but is still a little too gruesome to be identified, yet Kylie feels like she knows who it is. Oh, and also the ghost's prophecy does come true. Did I forget to mention that?

I also have a suspicious feeling that by the end of the next book, or even the series finale, that I will not be happy about something. There was a revelation shortly before Kylie learns what she is and it sort of affected her. Deeply. And I really really hope it won't come to mean anything, because it's not the choice I would make! I won't go further than that.

Overall Taken at Dusk--which is the perfect title--was superb! I totally loved it! Kylie and her friends are just so awesome! I can't always explain why I love the books I love so much. But the characters are definitely a top answer for my reasoning to the Shadow Falls series! I love them all! They are so deep, just when you think you might have one figured out, they surprise you! I so love this series! I truly hope that one day I can meet C.C. and tell her that in person! Hee hee! Always dreaming big, that's me!

Overall rating 5/5 stars

Taken at Dusk A Shadow Falls Novel C C Hunter Books Reviews


I loved the first book in the Shadow Fall's series, "Born At Midnight". I found the idea of a camp filled with a variety of paranormal teenagers to be absolutely intriguing. Kylie, as the main character, is truly a delight. She is loyal to her friends and family and would do absolutely anything for them. She also has a strong sense of what is right and wrong and she stands up for what she believes . The supporting characters are also appealing. I especially enjoy Kylie's roommates, Miranda the witch and Della the vampire. I enjoyed reading about Kylie's search into what she was, which was explored in more detail in the second novel. The most engaging storylines seem to come from the ghosts that Kylie can see and even communicate with. Those stories weave into the camp plotlines seamlessly.

In the third installment, "Taken At Dusk", we see more emphasis placed on the obligatory YA love triangle. Kylie has been hurt by both mysterious werewolf Lucas and by boy next door (who happens to be able to feel Kylie's emotions), Derek. Now Kylie has decided to forget Derek and focus on being happy with Lucas. My first real complaint with this book is the back and forth inner turmoil Kylie continuously has deciding between the boys. It was just too much. I get the Kylie is young and she has room to date both but there were just too many pages devoted to the inner drama this time around.

My biggest peeve though is the cliffhanger. As others have pointed out, we end this book in an almost identical manner as in the second book. We know only the barest hint more at the end of this book than we did at the end of the second. It just feels like this part of the series is really dragging on. It is time to get somewhere with the overall plot. I also felt like there was less of a climax this time around than in the previous books. There is supposed to be a big danger to Kylie's life but that sort of ends with a whimper instead of with the bang readers have come to expect.

This isn't to say this book was bad. It is really good in fact. The personalities of the characters are vibrant as always. The humor is strong and I had some chuckle aloud moments. I loved the story about Miranda and Perry; it was absolutely adorable. We are introduced to a new character named Ellie who I thought brought a nice twist to things at Shadow Falls. I just don't feel like this book was as strong as the others. It really did feel like a filler book. I am looking forward to the forthcoming installment and I don't hesitate to pre-order it because I am sure it will be good. The question is will it be great?
