What I most enjoyed about Kami Garcia and Margaret Stohl's new book "
Dangerous Creatures", the first book in the "
Dangerous Creatures" series a companion series of the "
Beautiful Creatures" series is the character of Ridley and exploring Ridley and Link's relationship beyond the original "
Beautiful Creature" series. I appreciated the complexity of Ridley's character. In the "
Beautiful Creatures"
series, the reader gets a taste of the battle between the dark and
light sides of her character. In this book, through dream flashbacks, a
reader sees why Ridley so thoroughly believes that she is completely
bad, while she in fact is basically trying to do her best with what she
has to work with. In my opinion, complex characters such as Ridley allow
teens to explore their own conflicted feelings as they learn to
navigate life and be self-directed.
