Narration In Pursuance Of Books Betrayals (Strange Angels #2)
She’s no angel...Poor Dru Anderson. Her parents are long gone, her best friend is a werewolf, and she’s just learned that the blood flowing through her veins isn’t entirely human. (So what else is new?)
Now Dru is stuck at a secret New England Schola for other teens like her, and there’s a big problem—she’s the only girl in the place. A school full of cute boys wouldn’t be so bad, but Dru’s killer instinct says that one of them wants her dead. And with all eyes on her, discovering a traitor within the Order could mean a lot more than social suicide...
Can Dru survive long enough to find out who has betrayed her trust—and maybe even her heart?

Of the three books in this series thus far, I think Betrayals is my favourite. The story flow is not as slow as in the first book, there is a lot more action and the narration of Dru's inner feelings about both the boys in her life sounds convincingly like the thoughts of a tough-but-confused teenager.However, all is not perfect, as is all too common these days. First off, Dru's still being irritatingly obtuse in this book, as also in the third one, so maybe it's a personality flaw I'm going toBetrayalscontinues the story of Dru Anderson with her escape from the Dakotas. Dru and her "loup garou" friend, Graves are taken to an isolated scola, where Dru is the only female amongst djamphirs and wulfen. There, Dru is to be protected from the vampires and werwulfen that want her dead. Oh, and there is a traitor somewhere.....The book started off a little slow for me, although it should not have. Basically the prologue is the last chapter of the previous book which was exciting. I found it
I've had this book out from the library for awhile, and I kept delaying reading it because I wasn't that big of a fan of the first book. I actually ended up finishing this one in a day. It was a lot better than the first one, but there were still some things that I didn't entirely like about it. If I could give half stars, I would have given it a 3.5.Dru is being whisked off to safety at the start of this book. She is what is known as a svetocha. It's very rare, and because of that, everyone
It's as good as its prequel and is an easy read. It makes you want to hunt for the third book at bookstores.
I guess I would go 3.75 stars with this book. I liked it better than Strange Angels; I felt like more happened in this book than in the first one. In this book, Dru and Graves are placed in a Schola, ostensibly for their protection. But it rapidly becomes clear that Dru is not safe, and she has no idea who she can trust. I liked how this incarnation of the werwulf and nosferatu/dhjampir mythologies are fleshed out (particularly how the wulfen make consensus decisions in order to "hunt in
Like the first book, it is more like 3.5 stars, with a little bit of benefit of doubt thrown in. This book was just as fun, interesting, and as twisted as the first. I enjoyed the plot, the universe, the crazy politics between the djampir and the wulfen. I am suspicious of everyone, the situation is tense, and I don't even know who Dru should trust. In this book Dru was much less bitchy, much more accepting of support, and asked many more questions, though she still needed to ask more. I am
It took me a week to finish this book. School was a definite factor, but the plot also contributed to my slow completion. It meandered in this one: a lot of internal thoughts but no real action. When the real action occurred, it was always sporadic, like a blur.Also, the writing style is beginning to irk me. There is a lot of unnecessary cussing - I know, teens cuss. But I do not see the point in submerging what could be good writing in immature language. Repetition was also pretty prevalent in
