About this listen

Be careful who you trust, for even the Devil was once an angel.

My name is Jemma Blackburn, and I have a secret. I know vampires are real. I watched one murder my father eight months ago, and even though they tried to convince me it didn't happen - that I'd lost touch with reality due to the trauma, I know what I saw was real. Hollow Hills is now the place I call home. It was supposed to be my chance at a normal life. My chance to bury my secret and start over. But everyone around me is keeping their own secrets, whispering lies into my ears like promises, and one of them is about to turn my entire world upside down.

I thought I had it all figured out. I thought I had the answers. I thought I knew who I was. The truth is, I didn't even know the half of it. There's a reason these vampires are still after me. There's a reason they will always hunt me. Because I'm not human. I'm the devil they fear and the angel they crave.

Only problem is, I don't know it yet.

Inception is the enthralling first installment in The Marked series. A YA paranormal romance full of atmosphere, supernatural adventure, and jaw-dropping twists that will keep you guessing until the very last minute.

This is the sort of story where you feel like you are waiting on something interesting to happen by this I mean yes things that are not overly exciting happen but throughout the story you are told something is blocking her nature and it feels like you are ever waiting for this to be resolved any minute so we can get onto the exciting parts but this never occurs at least not in this book. I did buy the next audiobook about half way through this book thinking it was getting exciting but in hindsight I’m not sure I would have given my current experience. I found the premise of the book interesting but the result could have been much better and I feel there are many other similar themed books that are much more stimulating.

EDIT: After listening to this book for the second time, four years later, what I found most frustrating is how the mc is so dense, so incredibly dumb and endlessly fails to see the obvious and makes such stupid mistakes. It must be this genre but it seems the writers always create such dense female characters and I've listened to hundreds of this genre. It's a rare treat when I find book series like The Hundredth Queen by Emily R. king where the main characters are strong, intelligent female leads who don't make stupid mistakes. I just find this genre so frustrating, think surely the average real-life girls don't act like this. Anyway, I'm sure you are pre-warned.

Well I have bought the next book but..

The writer writes like a poet and listening to the narrator feels like listening to a poetry reading it's good but it get very tedious as it goes on and on. I'm a simple person looking for scape from my mundane life, I like simple, action, romance and good plot not poetic words that's actually annoying. Just too much of it. Blah Blah but the narrative itself is excellent, Bailey Carr she us amazing. Bianca please spare us your poetic narrative.

this is a well written book with plenty of twists and turns to keep it interesting.
I wasn't 100% sold on the FMC at the beginning but I really enjoyed how she grew and came into her own by the end of the book.
I'm very interested to see what happens from here and have already purchased book 2.

well written, fast moving, fun twists.

So this came up in my Recommended because I read the Fallen series and to tell you the truth, I was a bit skeptical of this book at first because it had SO MANY similarities but I pushed on. I'm actually pretty keen to continue this series, though it may be similar it isn't the same. So that's why I love hate it :p

Love hate
