REVIEW: Common Descent by Natasha Larry & A Giveaway!!!! =D

Common Descent By Natasha Larry 



Common Descent starts off where it ended in book 2, with Matt figuring out how to help Jaycee learn to control her powers. Jaycee who when she wakes up struggles with her power and the fear she has of it. Also there is an enemy(as always) ready to destroy the CORE and all that they stand for. 

Jaycee is my girl. I freakin' looove her soo much. She's funny, smart, caring and a total bad-ass! She has grown up since we first met her in book 1. She has the whole world on her shoulders, along with all this power that she has to learn to control and fight with. In the last book we see her struggle with this and watched as power nearly consumed her a few times. This time along with Matt and her family we finally start to see her come into her own. She accepts that she has one of the most important roles in the Core and that if she doesn't get her act together and fast, shit is going to hit the fan. 

Matt, ohh Matty. What is there to say about the perfect man? Matt in this book was more cocky then in the previous books. He does a lot for Jaycee and everyone being that he is the Alpha of the CORE but I think that has gone to his head a lot. His ego is kinda big. But I feel like he deserves to gloat some. I mean if I was the perfect woman and someone told me that, I would be all egotistical about it. Matt also has his own trials and tribulations that he goes through in this story. It was kinda sad and I could feel his emotions while reading it. I love his relationship with his mom. You can feel how close they are and how much they love one another.




This book takes the readers for a ride while also providing a lot more information on what Jaycee and the crew's mission is. And it's a lot.....
We meet some new characters in this book as well as some old ones and ones we have heard about but never got the full story on them. 
I don't want to reveal what happens in this book but I will say that it was one amazing story to read. If you haven't read book 1 from this series I suggest you buy! You won't regret it!!! 

One thing I wanted to mention about this series that I don't think I stated in my previous reviews is how wonderful it is to read about a main character that is black and has an amazing dad. It's really refreshing as a black woman to read a story that has such a positive and inspiring black teenager and Father. Not only that but all the characters are multicultural. There is someone for everyone to identify with and I don't see that enough in YA books. 


Thanks Natasha!! I can't wait for book 4!

I was given a copy of this book for an honest review
