Short But Sweet!!!
I love coming a cross a great new series, and the first book in the "Venom" series did not disappoint. It was a great introduction into this world with vampires, shape shifters, and even gargoyles.
The characters were very likable; especially the members of the band! I can't wait to listen to the other stories to see how these characters develop.
One thing I really loved about this story is you get the POV from both the lead female and male characters and it's not just one person's point of view. I love stories that give more than one POV.
This is the first book I listened to narrated by Meghan Kelly, and thought she did a wonderful job. I will certainly be on the lookout for other books she narrates.
The only negative for me, and it's more of a preference, this series may be more of a YA, which is usually not my first pick.

A good story but.....
The story was good it had so much potential to be a five star read. One thing that hurt the story for me was the narrator. I'm sorry to say this but disliked her voice for every character. It was whining and annoying. However, I enjoyed the storyline and the plot of the story. I think had I read this story instead of listened to it, I would have rated it higher. There was mystery, suspense, vampires, lycans, rockstars, gargoyles and so much more in this story. Just when the action started happening this story ended leaving me wanting to know what would happen. I hope Melody, her friend Susan and her cousin Chelsey show some growth during this series because their actions are a bit immature. I'm excited to know what happens with Slade, Liam, Jimmy, Shaun, Faye and Ethan. This was a great start to this series and I'm excited to know more, I just wish there was a different narrator.

Very predictable
*** I received a free review copy for an honest review
I found this book just ok. Some YA books are great books with teenage characters, some are just immature writing. I found this the latter.
The narrator was good, but some of the characters, particularly the teenage girl that sounded like a valley girl grated on my nerves.

Unfair Teaser
Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?
It was well spent though it left me unfilled and frustrated.
Would you be willing to try another book from Kristen Middleton? Why or why not?
Yes I would as I want to know how the story develops and actually ends.
What does Meghan Kelly bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
Drama
What would have made this romance irresistible?
If something happened other than sparks and interest.
Any additional comments?
I felt cheated. I was at a loss as to how to honestly rate this book as this isn't really a complete book. It is just a taste and a teaser. It should of been a sample to get folks hooked on a longer more complete book. The book sort of ends in the midst of a beginning chapter on a cliff hanger. I hate books and movies that do this.
The book does show promise and has me hooked, however I feel that this book should not be sold as an individual book, rather it should be offered as a free sample introduction.

MORE SLADE PLEASE!!!!
What made the experience of listening to Venom the most enjoyable?
This was a super great story, and the narration was awesome!!!
What other book might you compare Venom to and why?
There are many Vampire books out there...each one unique in there own ways...I do not like to compare...I will say this is a great start to a series I want more from asap!
Which scene was your favorite?
When Slades band busts down the door...and the ending!
Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
I did laugh a few times....no crying...this is a super fun story and a great listen!
Any additional comments?
** I was given a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review **
I LOVED THIS STORY AND NEED MORE ASAP!
Venom is a band full of supernatural members! They are mostly vamps, but there is a lycan too...and that just screams sexy! The story starts with Melody dying to hook up with Slade the lead singer of Venom....she is out for a girls night and does not come home the next day...her cousin Chelsea is concerned about her, so her and her bestie go to the club Melody was at to kind of investigate....that's where they run into a bunch of supernatural trouble! Slade is drawn to Chelsea...and ultimately comes to her rescue in the end...
This is a quick and awesome listen...I loved every minute of it...and Meghan's performance was better than ever...can NOT wait till book 2! Highly recommend!!!!
