My Review:

 I originally saw this book on my Nook and thought to myself this seems like a plot I could really get into.  I had sworn off vampires and werewolves, and was looking for something to grasp my attention. The Goddess Test did just that; I fell in love with the book. I loved how kind Kate was; how she went out of her way to help someone she hated.
  
 The plot was a little confusing at times (jumping ahead several months), however it did not district readers away from the story. The slow building of the love between Henry and Kate was a plus. You could really see how they grew to love each other. I loved all the characters, especially Henry. It was interesting to see him open up to Kate more and more on a deeper level.

 Aimee Carter has created a story that a reader can get lost in. I cannot wait for the sequel.

My Rating: 4.5
