Pure

Covenant, Book 2

By: Jennifer L. Armentrout

Narrated by: Justine Eyre

Length: 11 hrs and 20 mins

Publisher's summary

Being destined to become some kind of supernatural electrical outlet isn't exactly awesome - especially when Alexandria's "other half" is everywhere she goes. Seth's in her training room, outside her classes, and keeps showing up in her bedroom - so not cool. Their connection does have some benefits, like staving off her nightmares of the tragic showdown with her mother, but it has no effect on what Alex feels for the forbidden, pure-blooded Aiden. Or what he will do - and sacrifice - for her.

When daimons infiltrate the Covenants and attack students, the gods send furies - lesser gods determined to eradicate any threat to the Covenants and to the gods, and that includes the Apollyon…and Alex. And if that and hordes of aether-sucking monsters didn't blow bad enough, a mysterious threat seems willing to do anything to neutralize Seth, even if that means forcing Alex into servitude…or killing her. When the gods are involved, some decisions can never, ever be undone.

Poor performance

The performance was poor. She does not have enough talent to change voices for each individual. Suddenly everyone has a weird accent. And poor Alex sounds so breathy. Very hard to listen to her.

Captivating

I could not put this one down! I was looking for ways to incorporate the book into everything I did.

great series

I love this series so much. hope more keep coming. I don't want to spoil anything for anyone , so I'll just say that I was upset when they killed him off. jennifer did such a great job of building up the people that you feel like you know them,. looking forward to the next book. thanks keep up the good work

LOVE it!!!

I absolutely loved this story. Great characters and narrator. I fell in love with this story for sure. Would definitely recommend. One of my favorite series.

Awesome book series

I love the covenant series. Jennifer Armentrout did an amazing job writing these books. I have read and listened to these books multiple times. I also recommend them to friends and family.

I'm Sorry

I really enjoyed book 2 of this series but I just couldn't get pass how many times the characters apologized. Alexandria, Seth, and Aiden were saying I'm sorry for every decision they made.

It's a great read, very interesting, and kept me on my toes.

Enjoyable Stories

Somewhat slow moving for the first two but this last one finished off great! Not that I didn't enjoy them, but there was a lot of buildup necessary. Excited to start the 3rd!

SO GOOD

I’m obsessed with this series. Can’t wait to immediately start the next one after posting this review! :)

Enthralling

Pros:
- love triangle with all the feels
- Alex has some personal growth
- invokes angry and self righteous feelings
- mystery of who is really good and bad

Cons:
- Alex acts like a 12yr old girl about Aiden
- Alex only thinks about the oracle's message after something happens instead of trying to piece it together

This was my favorite in the series so far. I did not put it down even when I should have been doing something else. i did the Kindle and Audible so I could go back and forth. The narration is amazing. You can clearly tell characters apart and they show emotion instead of just reading.

I know from the Oracle's message that Seth is the need and Aiden is the real love but it doesn't make me any less enamored with both. Time will tell which is real and enduring.

Who is the guy who has everyone fooled...Lucian, Marcus, Telly, Seth? Read the Seth POV at the end of the Kindle to get some insight or get more confused.

Moving onto the next one and cannot wait.

Interesting

Would you listen to Pure again? Why?

I don't think so. Although the story is interesting, is not the kind of book that would hold my attention again.

Who was your favorite character and why?

None.

Have you listened to any of Justine Eyre’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

Her performance was perfect.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

No. I wanted to listen, but not as badly as others books I've read.
