    SpadesHigh What can I say about Fury? To start off, the book cover is truly gorgeous and really grabs you on the factor of eye candy. But as for the book and its story, I have mixed feelings about it.

    I enjoyed the fact that I haven't read a story like this for which sets it apart from all the other reads, and the climax is very detailed that you can vividly picture it as you read along. As for the characters even the protagonist, Emily "Em", I didn't quite like. It was hard to build any emotions towards the characters, however, I did feel pity for Chase and was starting to like him a bit. There is one character I did like, JD Fount (Em's guy best friend/neighbor), he is very kind and more appealing than the rest but the story didn't go indepth about him. Em was too naive and stubborn. The other characters were just generally mean, selfish, and unrelatable. Although I teeter on my views because I keep telling myself as I continue reading that you need those kind of characters and scenarios to make a good story. So, like I said in the beginning I have mix feelings about Fury.
    I hated the fact that at some parts of the story I felt like I was getting the impression of "getting payback/revenge" is the right thing. I wouldn't want my child to get the perception that it's okay to take revenge on someone or even the idea that it's justice. But again, I'm torn because it's a tale about the Furies, and as its myth goes The Furies are the anger of the dead and the deities of vengeance.
    I would say this is a young adult novel for 16+ for its mature content and language. From my opinion, Fury by Elizabeth Miles would make a GREAT TV series right along with Pretty Little Liars because it has a lot of drama, conflict and tribulation. Better to watch than to read.
    I will read on to book #2 and maybe my opinions/thoughts will be changed. by SpadesHigh
