Title: “The Goddess Test”
Author: Aimee
Carter (If you ever get the chance-
Google her. SHE’S GORGEOUS.)
What it’s about:
(This comes from Good reads.)
Every girl who had taken
the test has died.
Now it's Kate's turn.
It's always been just Kate
and her mom - and her mother is dying. Her last wish? To move back to her
childhood home. So Kate's going to start at a new school with no friends, no
other family and the fear that her mother won't live past the fall.
Then she meets Henry. Dark.
Tortured. And mesmerizing. He claims to be Hades, god of the Underworld - and
if she accepts his bargain, he'll keep her mother alive while Kate tries to
pass seven tests.
Kate is sure he's crazy -
until she sees him bring a girl back from the dead. Now saving her mother seems
crazily possible. If she succeeds, she'll become Henry's future bride and a
goddess.
If she fails...
Overall Rating: 7/7- THIS BOOK WAS WRITTEN AND KISSED BY THE
ANGELS AND HANDCRAFTER BY THE TEARS OF JESUS.
What we thought about
it:
OH MY GOD THIS IS
SUCH A GOOD BOOK.
Okay, so a friend
recommended this book to me a couple months ago, and I wasn’t sure if I wanted to read it-
because I have never really read any Greek Mythology books and wasn’t sure if I
would like it. (I LOVE GREEK MYTHOLOGY NOW.)
The characters are
gods and what not, but they have American versions of them- like Henry is
Hades, Hera is Calliope- you get the idea. I really liked it, because it made
the entire thing more modern. The book doesn’t drag on and Carter gets right to
the plot. Kate is the main character, and she’s perfect. (Probably one of my
favs.) She is real and isn’t like a fake or anything, who has actual life
problems. She’s gorgeous (Of course.) Henry, the guy who challenges her just
makes me want to scream-
"OH MY GOD MARRY ME, HADES."
He is so perfect I
can’t go into detail because then I’d just scream. The plot was amazing, and
genius. Carter is a brilliant woman. The romance between Henry and Kate doesn’t
really occur until the later half of the book- but that’s only because one of
them is stubborn and it’s the typical way a writer will keep you reading.
There really wasn’t
anything I didn’t like. I loved all the characters, and like I said earlier,
the plot was amazing and made me keep reading- even though I had a lot of
homework and work to do.
Other Quick Things:
There are three
books. They have little side POV books that aren’t that great or important, but
if you want to, you can read them- but I’m not listing them here.
-The Goddess Test
-Goddess Interrupted
- The Goddess
Inheritance
They all are amazing, and I read the entire series in like
three days.
Xxx,
Caroline
