In the middle of the whole mess is Aphrodite: ex-Fledgling, human, trust-fund baby, total hag from Hell (and proud of it).  She’s always been blessed (if you could call it that) with visions that can reveal the future, but now it seems Nyx has decided to speak through her with the goddess’s own voice, whether she wants it or not.  Aphrodite’s loyalty can swing a lot of different ways, but right now Zoey’s fate hangs in the balance.
 
Three girls… playing with fire… if they don’t watch out, everyone will get Burned.



One more book. This one is better then few books before. As always, I love it.

Tko je ubio Pašteticu (Silvija Šesto)

Again, it's one more Croatian book. I liked it, it's fun and serious at the same time. "Paštetica" is radio show for kids. If you translate title it would be "Who killed Paštetica". If you are anyhow able to read it, try.
