4.5 stars!

I just finished this and I immediately thought-When's the next book coming out?

"Ivy James, you’re going to learn you can’t have your way all the time, girl." This was the recurring theme throughout this story. Ivy is gorgeous, sexy and not quite right in the head. She's used to getting her own way, and if she can't get what she wants through normal channels, she will find another route. Because Ivy does get her own way, and pretty much all the time, too.

I loved this tale of familial obligations, misplaced love and failed seduction. It's twisted and effed up and that's how I like my horror to be.

Bravo to you, Latashia, bring on the next book!

Highly recommended for fans of twisted horror!

I was impressed with some of the reviews of Ivy's Envy so I couldn't wait to read it myself. I agree, I didn't see the ending coming because it was a bit like a Stephen King book and completely out of sync with the whole story. Looking back, I should have paid more attention in chapter 1 as the story brings the reader back to this point at the end.

I thought the writing was excellent and I loved the continual link with Ivy's grandmother but I was a little disappointed in the ending. I think it does have a lesson to be learned in the book, not only that you can't have your own way all the time but be careful what you wish for as it may just turn out to bite you in the ass.

It's a short story and a very quick read. Now that I have read it, I will be looking out for book two in the trilogy as there's just something so very addictive about it.
