Descripción
Amidst the opulence and decadence of the Crescent City, Celine becomes entwined with a group of charismatic yet dangerous individuals who harbor secrets as dark as the bayou. Their relationships challenge her understanding of love, loyalty, and fate, forcing her to question everything she thought she knew about her place in the world. As tensions rise and the line between friend and foe blurs, she must confront her dreams and fears.
In a gripping tale woven with romance and intrigue, Celine learns that beauty can mask treachery and that the very bonds she seeks to forge may lead her to unimaginable depths. The city pulses with its own life, and as Celine uncovers the truth, she discovers that to truly thrive, she must embrace the darkness threatening to consume her.

Ver todoI was given a sample of The Beautiful by Renée Ahdieh from Netgalley and Penguin Young Readers Group, thank you.The Beautiful is entrancing and Renée Ahdieh has created a New Orleans reminiscent of the work of Anne Rice and I felt as if I were arriving at the docks of ’The Big Easy’ alongside Celine and her friends. You can practically feel the heat from the flames, and draw in the many sights and smells of this notoriously fascinating city due to the talented descriptions of the author.I have always loved vampire stories especially those that hold onto the classic styles that are depicted so well by Renée Ahdieh and I known that this series will be finding a place on my bookshelves as I am certain I will love these for some time.It has everything you could want in a story where you can't stop turning the page and I was extremely sad to find myself with no more pages of the sample to read!Everything about this book is a plus - if you love a good vampire story that is written so vividly that you can place yourself among the characters? The Beautiful is for you. Amazing doesn't seem a good enough word to describe it.
