Until I Die

Until I Die (Revenants, #2)

The second novel in Amy Plum's Revenants series is Until I Die.

Kate and Vincent have overcome the odds and at last they are together in Paris, the city of lights and love.

As their romance deepens there's one question they can't ignore: How are they supposed to be together if Vincent can't resist sacrificing himself to save others? Although Vincent promises that he'll do whatever it takes to lead a normal life with Kate, will that mean letting innocent people die? When a new and surprising enemy reveals itself, Kate realizes that even more may be at stake- and that Vincent's immortality is in jeopardy.

The Breakdown:
1. I think that Plum was very wise in setting these stories in Paris.  It just seems to fit so well with the idea of the revenants and the love between Kate and Vincent.  These books make me really want to visit Paris.

2. I like that this book focused mostly on Kate and Vincent dealing with their odd relationship, and how to make it work.  Each is trying to figure out a way to keep Vincent from the pain and drive to sacrifice himself to save humans, until Kate dies.  Although, the subplot of the Champion and the numa's new leader is great, too, with some nice twist in it.

3. I love that Kate refuses to sit back and let Vincent figure out everything.  She takes an active role in finding a way to keep him safe and healthy. Kate is no shrinking violet.

4.  The introduction on Violette and Arthur certainly make for some entertaining situations.  I especially loved any interaction between them and Georgia, who is definitely not afraid to speak her mind.

5. The ending of this book is has me wanting to read the next book right now.
