The Gauntlet (The Soppranaturale Series Book 1) by Ashley Pagano – Review by Desiree Ottinger

The Gauntlet: The Soppranaturale Series by Ashley Pagano
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Link thinks he is the last faerie in the world. He’s been looking for years for his other half and has given up ever finding her. Then one day, in walks Ommily. She is the missing half of their faerie pair, the epitome of protection for others like them. There’s just one hiccup… she has a fiancée. As Link helps her figure out exactly what she is and how she fits in at the Soppranaturale Hotel – where all otherworldly beings gather and thrive together- they are faced with some challenges. First and foremost, they have to survive together in The Gauntlet against the reigning champions, one of whom is Link’s jealous ex-girlfriend. Can they work together in a short amount of time? Will they be able to figure out how their powers complement each other’s in time to win The Gauntlet?

This is my first time reading this author. I found it to be a quick read that drew me in immediately. The characters were fleshed out pretty quickly and backstories were seamless with present time in the book. I didn’t want to put it down until I figured out what was going to happen. I feel like it was a good first book to a series and I am looking forward to reading more about Link and Ommily.
