Beautiful Creatures Complete Gift Set Kindle Edition
There were no surprises in Gatlin County. At least, that's what I thought. Turns out, I couldn't have been more wrong.
Ethan Wate used to think of Gatlin, the small Southern town he had always called home, as a place where nothing ever changed. Then he met mysterious newcomer Lena Duchannes, who revealed a secret world where a curse has marked Lena's family of powerful Supernaturals for generations.
Mysterious, suspenseful, and romantic, Beautiful Creatures, Beautiful Darkness, Beautiful Chaos, and Beautiful Redemption introduce a secret world hidden in plain sight. A world where impossible, magical, life-altering events happen. Sometimes life-ending.

That being said, as a person now in their mid 20’s, this was one story I was excited to grab and start again. It’s just as great as I remember, and I’m very excited to finish the series this time

If I had to compare it with another series I would select 'Harry Potter'. Like 'Harry Potter', it manages to convince the reader that the existence of a secret magical society which coexists seamlessly with our own is completely reasonable. I highly recommend it.
