Beasthood (The Hidden Blood Series) by A.Z. Green Reviewed by Melonie


The bloody, raw meat was tantalizing her; calling to her. She hated it and yearned for it all at once.
Stop, she ordered. What are you doing?!
So hungryyyyy, snarled a primal voice deep within her.
Don’t you dare! she screamed back.
But the primal hunger ignored her pleas and took over her body, forcing her rational voice deep within the crevices of her mind.



What would you do if you discovered you weren't human? That you turned into a bloodthirsty monster against your will?
What if your instincts, emotions and desires were torn between your own and the dark, dangerous animal lurking inside of you?
If it could make you yearn for someone you shouldn't, make you say and act in ways you wouldn't and overwhelm your whole existence?
If everything you'd ever known about your life was a lie?

In a world where a deeply hidden community is swathed in mystery, deadly secrets, betrayal and murder, Jaz Barker struggles to fight against the dangerous Beast within her and the emotions and desires it thrusts her way.

When tensions ride high and people she cares about are put in danger, she will have to decide how much of her newly awakened animal-side she's willing to let in.

And if it is worth the risk..


***** I was gifted a copy of this book for an honest review*****

Jaz decides to go on a trip with her aunt and it turns out going horribly wrong or maybe it turns out to be horribly right in the end. she ends up held against her will. She finds out things about her life that were hidden from her and has to learn to deal with the betrayal of everyone she knows and also how to deal with the new life that is set before her.

Nik thought he had everything he was supposed to have but after tragedy strikes he realizes that maybe he was wrong, and maybe Jaz is who is supposed to be with. Can she ever accept him for what he is and accept her future or will this end in even more tragedy?

I loved this book! I give it a 4.5 Star review( rounded up) . The characters pulled me in and couldn't let go of them. A.Z. Green did an amazing job at pulling the reader in and making them feel the emotions right along the with the characters. There was so much detail in the book that while I was reading it was almost like watching a movie in my head, This book puts a whole new spin on this genre for me. It is completely different from anything I have ever read. There are twist and turns around every corner and I did not want to put it down. All I wanted to know was what was going to happen next.

Jaz is a strong, independent, and feisty! I fell in love with her right away even if there were a few times that I wanted to slap her! She is so new to everything going on around her. I felt like I was on the journey with her while she discovers who she is.

I am so in love with Nik! (Where can I get one?) He is everything that you expect out of an Alpha. I didn't always agree with the things he did and said but he is amazing!

The only reason I could not give a full 5 stars on this book was because for me the time jumps in the beginning were hard to follow and left me confused. After I got to know more about who the main characters were and how things fell into place the time jumps were less and i was able to follow along more. I would highly recommend this book to all my friends and other readers!
