Review: Demon Bound by Chris Cannon
Synopsis
When a summoning goes awry, suddenly booknerd Meena’s summer job becomes something drastically different. Instead of cleaning eccentric Carol’s house, she’s bound to a demon as his soul-collector. Soon Meena discovers that the boring, pageant-obsessed, bonfire-loving town that she’s never fit in to is a hotbed for soul-sucking demons, demon-hunting witches, and vampires who just wanna have fun… And then she comes into her own powers.
Could things get any stranger? Good thing she meets new guy Jake—who gets her and still hangs around.
When Jake’s mom sends him off to his Aunt Zelda’s for the summer, he thought he’d be bored. But nothing is what it seems in this town. His aunt isn’t just odd, she’s a witch who fights demons and tries to maintain the magical balance of the town. Jake should get the hell out of there and, he would leave, except for bad-ass newbie witch Meena, who looks at him like he matters.
He never counted on sticking around, but Meena’s bound to a demon who wants to destroy her soul—and Jake’s finally found someone worth fighting for.
Review
It's a great story and very well-written. The author has built a very interesting world. It has demons, vampires, and most importantly romance. It's a fantasy YA novel told from the point of view of Meena and Jake. Both teens experience a summer they will not forget any time soon.
All Meena wants is a summer job but what she gets is so much more than she signed up for. Now, she works for a demon and collects other people's souls. Who knew their small town was infested with so many supernatural beings and none of them nice. In all the mess, the only good thing that happened was meeting Jake. Maybe there is a chance things could go back to normal... if they tried to find a way out of this mess...
Jake is spending the summer with his aunt in a small town. Unfortunately, this small town is unlike any other and now he is involved with vampires and demons. He could run away but he would never leave his aunt Zelda or Meena when he knows that there is danger surrounding them. But what could a teenager do when faced with supernatural powers?
This is a very interesting and entertaining read. I absolutely loved it, especially the ending. all the characters are well-developed and lovable. The story flows perfectly and has a very nice pace. All in all, this is an amazing fantasy story and I enjoyed it thoroughly.
P.S. I received a complimentary copy of this book.
