I bought this book two days ago and couldn't put it down! Dark and exciting, Prince of Arethane, completely lives up to the first book in the series. It was wonderful seeing the characters I fell in love with in Return to Arethane growing and changing in ways I never would've expected. New characters and thrilling twists keep this phenomenal story moving at a very quick pace in Kelly Riad's brilliant world.

I highly recommend this amazing book! Nov 01, Ashley rated it liked it. Good but no real surprises Great story but not exactly substantial. I really get caught up in the relationship with Emily and Jarrad but the background seems haphazard. This is the second book in the Elves or Arethane series, I was able to participate in a book tour for the first book, and I loved it!

So when I realized that the second book in the series was available I was on Amazon right away! In the first book we got to meet all the characters, and although a lot of the focus was on Emily and Jarrod, the story was basically about Karawyn and what was happening to her magic. In this book, Karawyn is still around, and honestly I cant figure her out, I want to This is the second book in the Elves or Arethane series, I was able to participate in a book tour for the first book, and I loved it!

She had absolutely no right to ask Emily to help her regardless of what she had to do. They are both such amazing characters, although they depend on each other too much which is evident when their relationship hits a bumpy road. The fact that regardless of what they were experiencing, they were still trying to help each other and it was always so obvious how much they loved each other when they were in the same room!

In this book we also meet Toby, who kind of seemed rather useless, and I kept expecting him to be working for Jabrari the whole time, but his main purpose seemed to simply be making Jarrod jealous… although I have it on good authority that he does have a different purpose which will be revealed in the next book thanks Kelly! This series has been fantastic so far, and I am super excited for the next book to come out.

This book seriously had it all, it had the romance, the magic, it had romance and friendships. As soon as I finished this book I was tweeting to Kelly Riad because I needed to know when the next book comes out! PS she says she is going through final edits and the book will be out soon! YAYYY Anyways, if you have not read this book yet you are totally missing out, it is a great story from the first chapter until the very end! Aug 26, Sangita rated it really liked it Shelves: A chance for you to win a copy on my blog! A copy was provided by the author for a honest review.

It's full of adventure, action, fantasy and romance. Emily has been friends with the beautiful Dafne ever since they've met. When Emily is saved by a hot guy in a embarrassing situation she doesn't think anything of it. But that all changes, when Dafne's siblings come home.

Kelly Riad (Author of Return to Arèthane)

Both of her siblings are gorgeous, like Dafne, but she's met one of them before. Jarra A chance for you to win a copy on my blog! Jarrad, he's the one who helped her at the restaurant. Emily knows Dafne and her siblings are hiding something from her. The flowers bloom when Dafne passes them and Kara was glowing!

The story was in third person perspective but the characters were still enjoyable to read.

The QUEEN OF ARÈTHANE (THE ELVES OF ARÈTHANE Book 4)

Emily was strong even though she has a heart problem and that she always has to act like a adult in her family. Especially, with her mum who is always drunk or spotted with alcohol. Seeing through Kara's perspective was a fun experience.

You get to know the story even deeper and understand it even more. Now, the plot and Kelly's writing was superb! I breezed through the book easily and didn't want to put it down.

Prince of Arèthane (The Elves of Arèthane)

It was all merged together with everything i liked; action, adventure, romance, heart throb moments and fantasy. And it wasn't all muddled up it blended in together exquisitely. Furthermore, the writing style of Kelly Raid was perfect for me. Even with all of these positive points, i had a problem with the ending. It was just there. It was left hanging and no i don't mean a cliffhanger.

It was just left there hanging. So, that really let me down. To end this review, i would say to everyone that they should definitely check it out soon. It kept me buried in its pages and i'm sure you'll be the same as well. Without a doubt, i am looking forward to read the next installment in this series. Jul 22, Lovey Dovey Books rated it liked it. The young adult fantasy, Return to Arethane , takes you through worlds that you can only imagine.

Kelly Riad is a vivid storyteller who's words are filled with loyalty, friendship, and love. Return to Arethane started out really well; it was engaging and Emily was the biggest focus. She's the girl with a messed up home life and one true friend, Dafne, who's sunshine and rainbows but burdened with a secret. It seems that when the secret reveals itself in the form of Dafne's brother and sister, Emil The young adult fantasy, Return to Arethane , takes you through worlds that you can only imagine.

It seems that when the secret reveals itself in the form of Dafne's brother and sister, Emily is pushed towards the background. Emily has a strong presence in the first half of the book, even when she learns what Dafne, Jarrad, and Kara are. However, once the adventure begins, it's like she's always in the way or holding the non-humans back. Emily doesn't stand on her own in unfamiliar territory. Despite not having too strong a heroine, Return to Arethane has its strong points.

The story is creative and magical, and the adventure is prominent. The characters all have a way of bonding with one another so that their interactions are fluid and believable. The biggest reason to keep reading is to see where Jarrad, Emily, Dafne, and Kara end up. Their journey isn't simple or straightforward, but doused with unpredictable danger. Riad has made this story universal and entertaining. Return to Arethane is fantasy that any reader can enjoy. Feb 12, Seashell rated it it was amazing Shelves: What a wonderful YA Elf fantasy.

It's a romantic adventure. The first two books in the series are clean; the third book will have premarital sex, but it's not graphic. Fabulous descriptions, great world, and not "ponderous" like a lot of fantasy books out there. The MC is likeable. There are other minor characters there that I became attached to. Highly recommended series for YA fantasy. I loved this Young Adult fantasy, the storyline was well written and Emily and Jarred are defiantly my favorite characters in the book!

For me there was never a dull moment, Emily has so much going on in her life from an alcoholic mom, absent Dad, to dealing with her weakening heart if thats not enough she finds herself having to deal with even more along the way but through it all her best friend Dafne has always been there for her. When Dafne's brother and sister arrive in town, they turn out to be more than what they appear.

She starts seeing thing, telling herself that it can't be real. I long the way she will discover secrets, fall in love, visit a new world were they will face many dangers, someone will betray them and they will fight to get their Kingdom back. I just want to say thank you to Kelly for such an amazing read and I can't wait for the next book to come out. Jun 28, Aubrey Davidson rated it it was amazing.

I completely fell in love with this book and it's characters! Emily is wonderfully relatable - figuring out who she is and her place in the world while everything she knows spins out of control. Its the way every teenager feels, but with a fantastical backdrop and much more adventure to keep her occupied. The author does an incredible job of seamlessly merging mythology and her own inventions.

I only wish Arethane were real so I could go live there, too. The supporting cast of characters are as I completely fell in love with this book and it's characters! The supporting cast of characters are as phenomenal as Emily - they are well rounded, flawed and whole people. I was dreading the end of the book because I wasn't ready to give them up. I would highly recommend this book to anyone. Whether or not you usually read YA or fantasy.
