Reawakened by Colleen Houck
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
Did I like this one? Yes! It's a story of Egyptian mythology, intrigue and a lot of romantic tension. I was pulled along on plot enough to keep reading, because I wanted to see how the story of Amon and his brothers work out. I wanted to know if they would make it, and how. I also liked seeing the Egyptian stories retold, and I appreciated the ending, which leaves me waiting for the next book.
However, I should note some things that may be issues for others:
-white rich protagonist, who of course doesn't care for the trappings of her penthouse life but lives by them anyway
-three brothers all seeming to care for the same girl, instantly upon meeting her.
I think it's worth giving a shot.
