Release Day Review of Magnified by Mell Eight

Magnified (Magnified #1) by Mell Eight 4*

BLURB: On her deathbed, Yani’s great-grandmother reveals she has one last story from her past to tell: that of his great-uncle Yakov, who helped her survive the Nazis. It’s a story of vampires and werewolves he can scarcely believe—and in the wake of his great-grandmother’s death, Yani discovers the story is far from over.
The world of vampires and werewolves isn’t a safe place for a human, even one with Yani’s unusual family history. With danger at his door, the smart thing would be to run, but much like his great-grandmother, Yani has never been very good at running away—especially with his loved ones and the whole world at stake.

My Review: Another great book from Mell Eight. This was the first one in a new series and I already want book two. 

The characters were really interesting and the world building is (as usual) excellent. I really liked the history woven through it and the fact that it made sense for it be there for the story. I think my favourite aspect was the relationships between the four main characters, especially the slow growth romance  between Yani and Aaron , it was well written and believable

My only complaint about it is that it did sort of end in a semi cliff hanger - in as much as there are lots of questions unanswered but I guess there's an over arcing storyline so they'll get answered by and by.
