Being unique isn’t all it’s cracked up to be.
After searching all over the world for someone as unique as she is, Racquel finds herself back in her home town where she’s treated like a monster ready to kill. Racquel is one of the most unique beings ever created. Four of the most powerful beings in the Shadow World are intertwined within her, making up her unique DNA. But no matter how unique her bloodline is, she’s considered an outcast by the entire Shadow World.
Once arriving home, Racquel finds that greater evils exist and that the person she cares for most in this world, her half-sister Addie, has been kidnapped along with other Shadow World beings. Racquel finds herself facing horrible odds with those who would rather see her dead than alive.
As her journey continues, Racquel learns more about herself, what she is capable of, and that not every being looks at her as an abomination. Coy, a human captive that Racquel saves from the Vampires, starts showing kindness toward her. Racquel tries putting distance between her and the human boy but as they spend more time together it becomes harder and harder for Racquel to fight the affection she wants and needs.
But will Coy’s friendship and her new found discoveries be enough to help Racquel unravel the strangest mystery that has ever plagued the Shadow World?

Being unique is not bad isn't it? Yet, people are not ready to accept you or the things you can do. They are not open minded to accept the fact that you are also a person or you belong to them no matter who or what you are. People are so judgmental in so many ways yet they will soon ask for your help.
Uniquely Unwelcome is a good book, I like it because the story is not complicated. Simple yet full of adventures and direct to the point. The first time I read the book I guess I already know the answer to my question, who kidnapped Raquel's sister Addie, and guess what? when I found out, I was correct yet still pissed off to the one who did that evil work.
Shadow World is where Witches, Lycans, Shape-lifters, Vampires and Fairies belong. Racquel in fact is one of them yet she is so unique and other Shadows are afraid of her and doesn't want to be around with her for the fact that she might lose control and kill everyone, even in their school or community. She once left their house swearing she will not return anymore yet she decided to come back. She taught her life will be different now yet another menacing thing happened. Many Shadows from the different clans are missing and even her sister Addie was kidnapped and one of the witch, accused her that she's the one responsible for it.
Because of the puzzled mystery happened, Racquel is going to seek for the missing Shadows. On her way she met new alliances namely Coy, Ethan, Danika and Jared. The question here is will they survive, knowing that they have a strong enemy?
The villains in the book are of course annoying in so many ways, yet greediness is all they have. Well, that what makes the story sound spicy isn't it? Villains.
The book itself is enjoying, it's nice to read a book like this. One more thing, I guess this was the first time I read a book that the lead character has so many hybrids so, I am praising the author for thinking that up.
Before I end this, I wanna ask if you are different will you just accept the fact that it's hard for the people to accept you or will you do something just to prove you do belong?

Brandy Nacole resides in
Arkansas where her imagination runs wild. Her obsession is reading but her
passion is writing. She put her dream of becoming a writer on the back burner
and went to college to become a psychologist. Three years after endless classes
in a field she only felt half satisfied with, Brandy picked up her pen once
again and wrote the outline to Uniquely Unwelcome. She finished out her degree
in psychology, but traded her dream of writing for the degree and put psychology
on the back burner.
Whenever she’s not reading or
writing, Brandy is spending time with her family and friends, throwing around
crazy ideas, teaching , and singing like a rock star at a concert for no one
else but herself. She loves plants, but unfortunately is a killer of anything
that requires water but can’t voice (scream) their needs.
She is the author of The Shadow
World Series and The Spiritual Discord Series
