A divine read!
She thought the demons were in her head…
Until the night they attacked…
It was a good read that introduces you to this world and characters.
But honestly, it felt too short and felt like hardly anything happened in this book. Few small fight scenes, this, that and towards the ending another non dramatic fight scene.
It held my attention in the beginning and there is some mysteries that I can’t wait to unravel in the next books. So am I excited for that. Hopefully, it gets better.
As for the rating, I keeping trying to decide between a 3 or 3.5 or a 4. So, for now, will leave it as a 4 because regardless of my complaints, I still enjoyed it a bit.
Full of Davina, demons, Grace, essence, mystery, attraction and friendships.
Perfect for readers of paranormal romances.
I loved this book and can’t wait to read the rest of the series. Ryn is a young girl struggling to figure out where she fits in. She finds it a Galen High with the Davina. I loved how Ryn and Marek’s relationship developed throughout the book. Get ready to read late into the night!!
Better than most
Alicia Rades does not disappoint! This series has been on my TBR for a while. I was able to get the audiobooks and whew! Demons and Angels, who doesn’t love a different take on that battle? Add in not knowing and thinking you were crazy half your life. Rin is the new girl and her whole life is about to change.
A fantastic listen. Ryn didn’t mean to kill a demon when moving. And didn’t know that fate had other plans for her. This listen grabs you and had me on the edge of my seat. I love how well the characters are brought out. And the storyline flows great on this great listen. The Author has done a fantastic job. And Narrator does a great job as well bringing out the individual characters. I was given this read. And its an absolute read. If your a lover if the Supernatural and just a fantastic listen this is definitely one of those.

Fallen meets Fallen Academy. Two of my favorite angel and demon stories combined into one. I really feel this was a great intro into an exciting new series. Alicia did an amazing job.
Natalie has such a soothing voice that just locales you into the story. Her voice was spot on in my opinion.
HOLD ON MY BANANA SPLIT!!!
Talk about spinning wheels. Man, this little guy hit the ground running. If you’re looking for an action packed, fast paced, intrigue, strong plot that flows through this page turning bombshell that will take you on an adventure you’ll never forget. The characters are complex, well developed and believable. Their personalities are unique with qualities and traits that balance out perfectly. The scenes are so graphic and descriptive it paints a magnificent backdrop that really makes the storyline pop. The twists and turns carry enough drama, suspense and danger around every corner. Alicia wields her words as skillfully and precise as a surgeon with his scalpel. Alicia did a remarkable job bringing this read to life flawlessly. Great job Alicia, thanks for sharing this awesome read with us.
This was my first Alicia Rades’s book and won’t be the last. This is a paranormal story with angels and demons and it’s so well written! I really appreciate my read/listen to this story. This story is fast-paced, suspenseful, funny and sweet. I love all the characters in this book. In fact, I love all about this book. It’s a gem! The main characters Ryn and Marek are perfect together. The storyline is entertaining and really captivating. I can’t wait to listen to the next story in this Series. This was my first listen to Natalie Naudus. She has a great voice, very easy to listen. I also love her male voice! I’m looking forward for more books narrated by her.

This one will be short and simple. I enjoyed Chosen by Grace. I’ll probably end up reading the next two books as well.
The story was interesting and unique (in my opinion). The concept was new (to me, anyway, I don’t know if others have written something similar), which is a big plus because you don’t find new things very often. And I didn’t notice any errors as I was reading through, which is always nice.
However, the book seemed a little short, which may just be because it’s YA, and for some reason, it didn’t drag me in the way other books do. I didn’t experience that fabulous moment where the world ceases to exist and you’re watching the story in your mind, rather than just reading it.
I haven’t the faintest idea why I didn’t connect with Chosen by Grace. But, because I didn’t, I’m giving it four stars. I would definitely recommend the book, especially to people who enjoy YA, but I won’t be raving about it.
I really enjoyed reading this book. The characters were all teenagers that have been facing evil forces as they attempt to go about their regular lives. Ryn discovers she is also a member of this class (Davina), and is mentored by a group of friends so she can find her place in this society. I’d recommend this book for fans of angel vs demon/good vs evil type novels with a cast of YA/teen characters.
Audiobook review: Chosen by Grace is an interesting story about the good guys vs. the bad set in a fantasy young adult/teenager genre! The story was interesting and kept my attention. The characters are likable for the most part. However, I really wanted to shake Ryn on more than one occasion for running, denial, & her stubbornness that almost got her friends tortured. The narrator did a good job with reading speed, tone inflections for each character and scene, and providing individual voices for each character.
