Lailah by Nikki Kelly Blog Tour Stop and Giveaway I don’t read paranormal books that often, but I was excited for Lailah as it sounded like an especially unique one. It proved to be both an action-packed and compelling read, making it one of my new favorites!

The story itself was addicting. I read the entire book in one sitting and I found myself constantly turning the pages to find out what would happen next. The story starts out with a flashback, and from there, it goes to Lailah waking up with very little memory of her past. The storyline was very detailed, with all sorts of paranormal and even some historical aspects incorporated. There’s also some mysterious elements to the novel, which made everything more intriguing.

Lailah was a likable character, and I admired her strength and determination. She’s initially not aware of her past, but she still makes the best of her current situation and does her best to find answers. She goes through a lot of character growth over the course of the novel and it was interesting to see how certain events changed her.

The love triangle in this book is written really well! The two guys, Gabriel and Jonah, are complete opposites and I’m curious to see where people will end up in choosing teams. Gabriel, the rogue angel, is already connected to Lailah and shares a past with her. I personally found him to be a more boring love interest (at least as boring as a rogue angel can be ;) than Jonah. He was nice, but I wasn’t particularly rooting for him and Lailah to get together. Jonah is definitely my favorite! He’s a vampire, and from the moment he and Lailah meet, things between them were pretty interesting ;)

The ending of Lailah leaves me so excited for the sequel! The ending was only a mild cliffhanger, but 2015 seems too far away. Lailah’s definitely an awesome paranormal read, and a book that I’d recommend to anyone who likes the paranormal genre or faster paced books. I’d give it 4 out of 5 flowers.
