Reawakened (Reawakened, #1)

by Colleen Houck

Two star-crossed teens must battle mythical forces and ancient curses on a journey with more twists and turns than the Nile itself . . .

When seventeen-year-old Lilliana Young enters the Metropolitan Museum of Art one morning during spring break, the last thing she expects to find is a live Egyptian prince with godlike powers, who has been reawakened after a thousand years of mummification.

And she really can't imagine being chosen to aid him in an epic quest that will lead them across the globe.

But fate has taken hold of Lily, and she, along with her sun prince, Amon, must travel to the Valley of the Kings, raise his brothers, and stop an evil, shape-shifting god named Seth from taking over the world.

I really enjoyed Colleen Houck's Tiger's Curse series, so I was excited when I received an ARC of Reawakened. Even after finishing this book, I'm still unsure exactly how I feel about it. Certainly not blown-away, but not disappointed either. I guess the word that sums up my feelings most is...entertained. While I didn't love these characters as much as I did the characters in her other series, I still felt invested enough in the story and enjoyed all of the twists and turns. Plus, I loved getting to immerse myself back into Colleen Houck's familiar writing style (think: sarcastic quips and hilarious banter).

Overall, this book is worth a read - especially if you like stories of mythology mixed into the modern world.
