Becoming Alpha (Alpha Girl #1)
By:Aileen Erin
Genre: Romance, Paranomral Teen YA
Synopsis from Goodreads:Tessa McCaide has a unique talent for getting into trouble. Then again, it isn’t easy for a girl with visions to ignore what she sees. Luckily Tessa and her family are leaving California and moving halfway across the country, giving her the perfect opportunity to leave her reputation as “Freaky Tessa” behind. But Tessa doesn’t realize that kissing the wrong guy in her new Texas town could land her in far more trouble than she ever imagined. Like being forced to attend St. Ailbe’s Academy, a secret boarding school for werewolves.
Even if the wrong guy did accidentally turn her into one of “them” and doom her to attending the weirdest high school ever, Tessa can’t help her growing attraction to the mysterious Dastien Laurent.
When vampires attack St. Alibe’s and her visions pinpoint an enemy in their midst, Tessa realizes that boy drama and her newfound canine tendencies might just be the least of her problems.
| MY review | Why was Tessa "Freaky Tessa"? Simple, she had powers. Why did she have the powers? It was in the genes. Did Tessa make any friends in her new school? Yes and no. She first went to a regular school and befriend some people, but after the "turning" incident, they un friended her and treated her as "not wanted." Tessa has an interesting life. But it only became more interesting after she moved to Texas. Everything was new, different. And this was because of the sudden impulse of an animal inside the man she clicked with from the first sight. What I liked of this book was that the action (like punching a hateful guy during a party)l the characters and the plot. Many might say that this books may be cliché, but No. Yes Vamps and Weres are enemies from the get go, this story has many examples of originality. What I didn't like were some of Tessa's actions. Like "why would she do that? That's not such great idea!" These are some questions I was asking and for me it just felt like the was a dimwit. BUT!!!! the drama and action and romance made up for it. Also, speaking of romance... The romance between Tessa and Dastien had made me intrigued. There were parts were I was mad because they know the answer to their feelings but were stubborn to realize them. All of the jealously acts and actions had not suited well with me. There jealousy was too intense. But I get it... The jealousy that they had made their love even sweeter. It makes me want to have a guy who feels as strongly as Dastien feels for Tessa and vice versa. Overall, my rating for this story is............... 9.75 out of 10 |
