Review:

Pervade London by Vanessa Fewings

Pervade London (Pervade Duet, #1) (Arc) was graciously provided to me by Buoni Amici Press for an honest review. I have voluntarily read this book and have provided my honest opinion.

                                                 “A Mysterious and Gripping Read”     

An incredibly gripping and vastly mysterious lengthy new read has this reader filled-to-the-gill with the after-affects of this descriptively elaborate, angst-ridden, heat-filled, heart-breaking story.  With its seemingly insurmountable and indescribable moments and its multi-layered and deeply mystifying characters, it was almost impossible to ignore the heavy pull of this captivating new duet.

  Pervade London, by Vanessa Fewings, was quite the story with its tremendously intense and riveting storyline that it had the immediate ability to grab a hold of this reader, with its highly emotional and questionable moments.  I was all over the place during this new read as the plot was over-flowing with this magnetized and heady pull that not only had its characters unknowingly drawn to one another, as such, but it also appeared to lead the way down an exciting, action-packed road for all as well.

Wow.  When I had originally accepted this review, I had thought that I was going to read a nice and simple story containing a nice and simple menage between lavish individuals all set within a regular story.  Was I right??  WRONG…  It was so much more than that.  It had contained this unknown depth that had not been predicted to have existed prior to reading.  Its mysterious interconnectedness between the characters and their own form of power and need was simply amazing and jaw-dropping.  Its descriptive writing was beautiful and perfect, as it allowed the mind’s eye of the reader to accurately envision multiple aspects of London.  Its characters were addicting with their own background and stories that were emotionally vast, touching and powerful.  All of this collectively, in this reader’s opinion, had added to the positive effect of the writing.

The characters..woah..they are all so complex and highly mesmerizing individuals.  Some I absolutely adored and seriously need to squeeze-hug oh-so-tightly, while a few others..well, I’m still trying to figure them out as they..still have room to grow.

That all having being said, however, this story also bothered me to some extent.  In addition to the difficult-to-read triggers, its need for more character background and general development, it was so extremely mysterious, almost like it had contained this constant cloud, and I felt that I always had questions and was frequently confused about parts of the plot, and, there seemed to be so much going on that it often left me with whiplash as well.  Even so, there were just as many moments that I absolutely loved and got so weepy over that I had wished there were more moments like those.

All-in-all, Pervade London was a great, suspenseful, and highly-addicting read, that even though there were questionable moments, as it had this magnetic-pull, I will probably be reading the next story of this duet as well..:)
