Coinkidink, one of the main characters' name was also Corinne in the book I read just before this one, never happened to me before so I couldn't help sharing that.

Still can't believe the author was able to write an entire book without revealing too much. What is Pyxis? Don't have clue. It's kinda like the movie where no one once mentioned "He's Just Not That Into You". Okay, maybe not exactly like that but you get a hint that Pyxis is something or someone magical.

Corinne's grandmother left her a box with the word Pyxis written on it, assuming that it's baking ingredients Corinne uses some of the food dyes in the box in her baked goods. This shows Corinne's immaturity, who would be so brazen to use unlabeled ingredients to feed people and not worry they might kill someone? Corinne comes across a bit young but she was not annoying thankfully, I felt her love for baking adds a bit of a maturity layer to her personality. Corinne has a best friend Angeline, who came across just as young, but a little more responsible, maybe. I found myself squealing like a teenager along with the best friends when things went their way.

Mason was part of the story in spirit for about half of it but when he finally appeared I was very happy about that. He brought some testosterone with him and of course the swoon, definitely needed the swoon. You could tell right away how he felt about Corinne. He was stoic and strong for Corinne and his emotions seem to surface only in his feelings for Corinne, most of time he seems emotionless. I think he was really trying to not freak out along with Corinne.

I would describe this story as, cute? Yeah it was very cute and sweet, yeah. On the cover of the book it's reads PYXIS The Discovery, so I guess it's more of an introduction to the series. For most of the book there was no one or at least anyone trustworthy to give Corinne and her friends information on what Pyxis is. A lot of the story has Corinne and her friends searching for information and trying to find anyone they could trust for help. The one person who could fill in the blanks was not readily available till the tail end of the book, but of course K.C. Neal was very adroit at elusion. We did get some more info about the Pyxis world on what to expect in the series, for me the explanation was a little rushed and hope things will be fine tuned later.

Yes there was a lot of avoidance from informing the reader what is Corinne's supernatural alter ego, I really liked it anyway. Will definitely read the next book, I'm hooked and REALLY want to find out what the heck is a Pyxis. I could make some educated guesses but I'm sure I would be completely off the mark.

So how many times did write the word Pyxis, this one counts too?… (more)
