Summary: Lena Duchannes is unlike anyone the small Southern town of Gatlin has ever seen, and she's struggling to conceal her power, and a curse that has haunted her family for generations. But even within the overgrown gardens, murky swamps and crumbling graveyards of the forgotten South, a secret cannot stay hidden forever.
     Ethan Wate, who has been counting the months until he can escape from Gatlin, is haunted by dreams of a beautiful girl he has never met. When Lena moves into the town's oldest and most infamous plantation, Ethan is inexplicably drawn to her and determined to uncover the connection between them.
     In a town with no surprises, one secret could change everything
.



Thoughts: The title says it all...Beautiful Creatures is truly a beautiful novel. Just by reading the summary you know this is one have to read...NOW! I mean it people! Beautiful Creatures did come out a few years ago but if you haven't been able to do it, read it as soon as possible.
            To begin, the plot was thoroughly thought out. I mean a daring, handsome boy that dreams about a girl and then, suddenly, she shows up and a spark is instantly lit. Ethan and Lena are both grand characters that speak to you strongly. They portray the message that if you really want something, fight for it, don't just let it go. In most novels, the characters begin to give up on their relationship but then in the end, find out that they were meant to be but for  I loved the way how they had an passionate relationship before they even met, they were truly meant to be. For Ethan and Lena,they knew that they were meant to be from beginning to end and they could never let each other go. This love story has hit many rough patches but they truly touch your heart. What do you think of Lena and Ethan?
      Kami Garcia and Margaret Stohl did a wonderful job with bringing the story to life. They also brought the plot to a point where it was above and beyond. I found it impossible to put this book down. It was like it grew onto me and became a part of my hands.
      In the end, Beautiful Creatures was another fabulous novel that will intrigue every audience. I gave Beautiful Creatures by Kami Garcia and Margaret Stohl 4/5 stars because it was an amazing novel with very, very few flaws and I would recommend to everyone. Read the novel and tell me your thoughts on the book!


Rating: 5/5 stars
