I voluntarily reviewed an Advance Reader Copy from the YA Bound Book Tours. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review.The Dark Awakening by D.L. Blade is an exciting twist to the whole supernatural world that we have come to know and love.

Can Mercy figure out her past and her powers in time to save the world?


Mercy


Mercy is our primary and point of view character. She comes from a long line of Salem Witches. Mercy grew up without knowing about her powers and, unfortunately, gets an information overload a few weeks before her eighteenth birthday. I love the way that Mercy just tries to keep everything in her life regular while trying to absorb all of this information. I'm not sure if I would react the same way as Mercy about a lot of things that she finds out about mostly on the whim in this book.

What I like about her is that Mercy takes everything astride and just tries to put a positive spin on it.

The World


The world, when the book was written, was pretty much the same. Some of the things that are different are the supernatural elements and how Mercy plays a significant role. I can't precisely divulge what role she plays in, but wow. I am still reeling from everything that happened in the book, and I'm hooked. The world seems so real, and I think that it would be cool. Mercy has a lot of information given to her. Hopefully, she will do something useful with this information.

Five Stars


I couldn't put down The Dark Awakening by DL Blade once I started it. Ms. Blade has a way with words, and this book was well written. I loved this book so much, and I am thinking that at one point, I am going to have to finish this trilogy. I love Mercy's voice and the way that she is finding out about everything. Hopefully, she can have a semi-normal life too. 

I am giving this book five stars and recommending it to anyone that likes vampires, witches, and werewolves.
