Summary: Lovers, not fighters!
Review: The Chosen is my favorite book out of the Night World Series. Its not made out of the mush the other Night World books are made out of. All the other books are good, but they make me wanna gag! This was the only REAL story, with real characters and serious issues. By the end of the book, you are in fierce admiration of Rashel and are in love with Quinn. True, Ash does the same for you, but nothing like Quinn. The changes he goes through, first being a bloodthirsty killer, then becoming a tender lover, really rock you to the core. And the flashbacks with him and Dove and his early days with the Redferns make you realize that he has... depth. Something that Ash DOES NOT have. And Rashel, getting over her hate of vampires and loving Quinn... who WOULDN'T respond to that? Rashel and Quinn both find out that when it comes to each other, they are LOVERS, NOT FIGHTERS! A truly GREAT story that will leave you breathless, it is definelty worth a read!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I LOVE THIS BOOK!
Review: Of all the books that L. J. has written in this series, "The Chosen" is by far the best. I have read all nine of the currently published books(and am still eagerly awaiting the tenth). This book has the wonderful premise of the previous and subsequent books. However, it also has main characters with more depth than many characters in other novels and realistic motives. Rashel and Quinn spend most of the book trying to ignore their feelings for eachother and trying to kill eachother. Both things are something that the other books really lack. Niether readily admit to bieng soulmates. The two characters fellings towards the members of Circle Daybreak coin the term "damned Daybreakers."All of these things and their depth of character contribute to make this a great book rather than a marginally good book as the other books in this series have been.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The hard choice
Review: This book is the greatest Night World book that L.J. Smith has written, although this is the only one that I have read thoroughly I know that all of her other books are written very well.This particular book is about a girl named Rashel that wants revenge on the vampire that killed her mother, so she ends up being a vampire hunter. She has no feelings against killing vampires, until she looks into a particular one's eyes. She can't kill him because she has feelings for him, and she can't figure out why. When she saves a girl named Daphnie and gets herself and Daphnie into a vampire slave trade. She tries to escape when a werewolf tries to kill her, she tries to kill it but she can't. Suddenly the vampire that she has feelings for kills the werewolf, and asks her why she was going to let herself get bit by the werewolf, and not by him. Will she let him bite her or will she somehow get away? Find out in this really thrilling book. I liked it, and I hope anyone that reads it will too.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The cat and the bat.
Review: The chosen is one of the best night world books in the series. For once the contrast between Vampire hunter and vampire actually work. Rashel is a vampire hunter and Quinn is a vampire, and they're soulmates. That might sound corny but I'm not finished, they're determined to kill each other though. It's intriguing and mysterious and is a book you have got to read.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A cool book
Review: _The Chosen_ is one of my favorite books in the Night World series, mainly because Rashel is courageous and tough and strong, and Quin isn't such a soft guy. The romance is nicely done, and Rashel as vampire hunter is just awesome as she goes into the vampire underworld to rescue some girls who managed to get themselves sold into slavery(of course, she herself has to be captured, but she can handle it).

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: You have to read this!
Review: "The Chosen" is one of my overall favorite books! You can tell by looking at my copy because it's falling apart! It opens with Rashel's childhood and it really catches your attention 'cause it's so descriptive. If you don't like action and vampires with a little bit of Romance, then this book isn't for you, but if you like all of the above, then you can't go wrong!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Different
Review: This book seemed different and almost better then the other Night World book. It starts off ( if you don't count the kid part.) with Rashel the vampire hunter killing vampires. You are made to feel like she does- that vampires are just something to get rid of. But at the end of the book you are thinking totally differently. This book also seemed to explain the 'soulmate' principle the best, how Rashel and Quinn really fitted together- maybe because Rashel is such a strong character you can tell she isn't just being romantic when she and Quinn touch. Derserves six stars!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: More Night World
Review: I can read these books over and over, but especially this one. It's my favourite. I started reading them over two years ago, and I still like them, whereas other books I have grown out of. There was something about Rashel and Quinn that I really liked though. I hope she writes more, and I wish they were easier to find! ............

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: She watched her mother be killed by a vampire.
Review: Ever since Rashel found out vampires were real, she has tried to kill as many as she can. But when Quinn shows up, and Rashel finds out that they are soulmates her world will never be the same.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I came with her at the beginning
Review: The story begins with Rachel's childhood. It caught me bcause of how well I remember my childhood. I used to love those climbing things she was on and I could definetly relate to having to make sure her friend was always tagging along. From the first chapter where it describes her past, I can definetly see how she got stronger and braver. You can tell Smith does allot of research in this book. Rachel actually seems to understand those martial arts. She's definetly not anything like me, but her character fits into the story perfectly and its definetly one of the better books in the series.
