Wow! That was unexpected!

Beautiful Choas was even better than the two previous Beautifuls. It was neatly written and emotionally captivating! Kevin T. Collins did an excellent job on mimicing the characters voices, which made the whole thing even more enjoyable! I almost choked on my own tears several times while listening to it, and I dare you not to cry. This series has always been dark and depressing, yet not doubt Beautiful. The end caught me by surprise and left me painfully haning. I can't wait to read the last book!

Just OK

Is there anything you would change about this book?

I would change a lot. There seemed to be a whole lot of nothing going on in this book, compared to the first book. It wasn't terrible, but it wasn't great, and I was eager to get to the end just to get it over with. I kept hoping something really great would come out of it, but nothing ever did.

Would you be willing to try another book from Kami Garcia and Margaret Stohl ? Why or why not?

Yes, I enjoyed Beautiful Creatures, so I was surprised that I found this instalment a little lacking.

Any additional comments?

Kevin T. Collins is a fantastic narrator. I spent the credit on Beautiful Chaos because my library didn't have it and I really enjoyed his narration of the rest of the series. If it wasn't for his talent, I would feel a little let down by this book. He has a wonderful voice and an ease of speech that makes his narration alone worth the credit.

Epic!

Gatlin comes alive once again in this story of family, friends, love and loss. Mr Collins, once again gave a stellar performance in this next chapter of Lina and Ethan's journey. Ethan is once again having the dreams and hearing his mother's song. Pestilence and destruction of Old Testament proportions is taking place after Lena claimed herself at her 17th moon. So many choices have been made along the way that have complicated the course of events. The only way to resolve the dire situation is a sacrifice.

I don't think I have cried this hard over a book ever! Mr Collin's ability to perform the different voices made this even more enjoyable. I was on the edge of my seat anticipating every twist and turn this story provided. I love many of the characters, Linkubus, Alma and even John Breed gew on me. I hated him so much from the last book. I even felt sorry for Serafina. The curse is brutal and when you don't have a choice or anyone to turn to, it is a difficult journey. This is one series that I will listen to over and over again!

I just love these books!

The Beautiful Creatures series is my absolute favorite. I have been an Audible member for years and these are the only books I have ever listened to twice. Yes, they move a bit slow and can be are repetetive. However, I enjoyed the sound effects and the narration is great. My favorite characters are Ethan's elderly aunts. They are adorable! I am from the deep South and they remind me of a couple of people I know!

Pretty compelling listen

While I was most enthralled with book 1 in this series (which is pretty typical of this type of genre, at least for me), I definitely enjoyed making my way through books 2 & 4. So: if you were a fan of "Beautiful Creatures," it's definitely worth your while to make your way through the trilogy!

Loved the characters. Well developed.

Lots of laughs and cliffhangers. Won't give it away but holy crap the end!!!!! And now I have to wait how long for the next book?!?!?!?!

Changes are All Around

If you could sum up Beautiful Chaos in three words, what would they be?

Anarchy, injustice, sacrifice

What did you like best about this story?

It continues the story...with the characters, the places, the atmosphere of the beautifully created world of the Beautiful Creatures. So many layers in the story, the magic...maturing of the characters who were required to make life changing decisions in this book.

He is very good.

I started out loving this series, but...

Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not?

I am kind of getting tired of it all, I fear. I actually find aspects of the plot very crazy confusing, like the whole thing about Lena's Mother calling the claiming moon out of time and Uncle Macon being back,etc...huh??? My fear is that we might be listening to

Great 3rd novel

Technically, it's the 4th including "Dream Dark," but who's counting?
The novel got a little slow in the middle, and I noticed a lot of the same phrases were repeated. However, it really picked up in the end and I cried for the last hour straight through!

Narration was fantastic as always!

The performer was wonderful, the book, no mystery

Kevin T. Collins did a fantastic job. The story seems to be getting a bit stretched out, and I dont know if i will want to listen to the other two in the series. I thought this was such a different series, but this third installment seemed to lack the excitement of the other two. The plot was easy to discern. I like a little more mystery. Worth listening to if you are a fan of the series, and definately the reader makes it very fun!
