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.

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:

Supernaturally is the second book to Paranormalcy, and I have got to say, it does NOT disappoint!

Evie has finally found the normal life she wanted. She now sees Lend every weekend, goes to school, AND now has a locker (that she loves). But now that she has her normalcy, she cant help but feel...bored (and can't help but hate her gym teacher, Miss Lynn--Huh. Wonder why it's just "Miss").

But she can't go back to IPCA, can she? Her boyfriend and his dad hate everything it stands for.

According to Raquel, everything is a mess back at the center; they need her. Raquel even tells her that she doesn't have to deal with the fey, anymore, because there is a new escort she can go in the Paths with.

Jack, the innocent, dimple-faced boy with a few screws loose. Jack, the only known human who can walk the Path without getting lost for eternity.

Jack, who like her, didn't know where he belonged.

Too bad he never took anything seriously.

Oh, bleep. What's a girl to do?

Supernaturally was an AMAZING sequel. I was never bored with it, at all. I really only have one complaint.

Evie.

In Paranormaly, she was strong, independent. In this one she was, well...dependent, a compulsive liar, and kind of a bitch. Everything was about Lend. "I can't tell Lend this. Lend can't know about that."

And guess what? Lend found everything out, and was PISSED.

Now, I'm not the biggest fan of Lend. He's alright, but even in the previous book, I was more on the side of Reth, who hardly came into play in this one.

My favorite character in this has got to be Jack. He was just... Adorable. Crazy. Hyper. He was lost in the world, and it showed in his behaviour.
Jack was mid-jump when I burst into the room. I snatched his ankle, flipping him horizontal. He crashed down hard onto the bed and rolled off onto the floor.

And laughed.

"Let's do that again! But this time, I'll jump even higher!"

"No! No, you won't! What are you doing here?"

He sat up on the floor and shrugged. "I was bored."


I'm sorry, but he was adorable.

I can tell Jack will probably make a big appearance in Endlessly, and I can't wait to read some more about him. :3

This book was fast-paced, and had a way of making me laugh my bleeping ass off and being really deep.

Oh, and it's about the only series I don't mind "bleeping" out the curse words, because it's meant to be a joke. ;)

I recomend this to anyone who just wants a good laugh and is tired of the "typical" paranormal books. Because, let's face it. This series is pretty damn original.
