  4. I'm a bit of a sucker for Jackal...

    ReplyDelete
  5. I think it's Kanin who says that, but my favorite character is Jackal

    ReplyDelete
  6. Jackal. Didn't like him at first, but he really grew on me!

    ReplyDelete
  7. I have a soft spot for Kanin.

  8. It sounds like a vampire so I'm guessing either Kanin or Sarren said this...but leaning towards Kanin. I shall find out today though! XD

    ReplyDelete
  9. I really can't choose between Kanin and Jackal ):
    I love them both <3 (P.S: Still super torn up about that ending....)

    ReplyDelete
  10. I love all her books, I can't wait to read this one!

    ReplyDelete
  11. Probably Jackal because he makes me laugh. But Kanin is great in his own way too.

    ReplyDelete
  12. I actually haven't read this series yet, but if I won....I'd buy the rest of them, read them, and put them in my classroom library. I am the Title I Literacy teacher for a 5-8 building! They call me the Booktalk Queen.

  14. I have a hard time choosing favourites... I've loved Allison all through the 3 books, but Kanin & Zeke were my favourites for book 1 & 2 and then for book 3 strangely enough it was Jackal, that I could barely stand on previous books!

    ReplyDelete
  15. I didn't start the series yet, but I hope to start asap! :)

    ReplyDelete
  16. Zeke is cool and all, but Allison is my Katana wielding badass, so she is my absolute fav.

    Thanks for the giveaway, Julie !!! I love all your books and look forward to reading more from you !

    ReplyDelete
  17. I already ordered my copy but a signed one would be brill.... My fav Allie because she is strong and fits against her basic instincts to protect those she cares about ....

    ReplyDelete
  18. I love this series and all the characters, but it definitely wouldn't be the same without Jackal. I love how sassy he is :P

    ReplyDelete
  19. My favorite character is Allie.

    ReplyDelete
  20. It's a tie between Kanin and Jackal! I aodre both of them!

    ReplyDelete
  21. I would like to be Allie just because she gets to wield a katana. Lol Thank you for this great giveaway! Love the series ^_^

    ReplyDelete
  22. I haven't started this series yet, but plan on to in the next week! Working my way through my tbr!

    ReplyDelete
  23. Kanin!! Although Allie is a close second :)

    ReplyDelete
  24. my fav? easy that would be the awsome jackal!!

    ReplyDelete
  25. For me, though I loved Allie and Zeke, the favorite position is a toss-up between Kanin and Jackal. I believe I would probably pick Jackal, crazily enough. I loved how he played the big, tough, emotionally unavailable, sarcastic pain in the ass, but was always there when he was needed. At the end of the day, he was a part of the family, even if he did try to act like he was doing them the favor.

    ReplyDelete
  26. I haven't read the books yet but would like to enter anyway :)

    ReplyDelete
  27. Jackal is a pretty interesting guy

    ReplyDelete
  28. Although his series is full of amazing characters, my favorite has to be, hands down, Allie. Why? I just really admire her so much. I wish I was as bad ass as her. I haven't read "The Forever Song" yet so I have yet to see her full dark side, but no matter what, she'll always be one of my favorite characters in the entire world.

    ReplyDelete
  29. Jackal because he is unpredictable and funny!

    ReplyDelete
  30. Jackal, obviously.

    ReplyDelete
  31. My favorite character is Allison because she's so badass and I love her so much. She's one of my top favorite heroines.

    ReplyDelete
  32. Thank you for the wonderful giveaway, Julie! :)
    I'd have to say Kanin is my favorite with Allie, Zeke, and Jackal coming in quite close. Lol

    ReplyDelete
  33. Love this series!!
    My guess is Kanin giving Allie one of his many lectures on Vampire natures!
    Can't wait to find out who!! :)

    ReplyDelete
  34. Kanin or Jackal. I can't decide between them!

    ReplyDelete
  35. It's sounds so Kanin <3 Thanks for the giveaway! <3

    ReplyDelete
  36. I can't reallly remember exactly who said this but, considering the "cage" and "wings" part, I'd guess it's our beloved (sarcasm inside) psychopath, Sarren.

    Once again, thanks for the giveaway.

    1. PS: My favorite character, no need to say, is Jackal, as I've said many times before. He just manages to make me smile, even when what he says is heartless or not what you want to hear.

  37. awesome giveaway julie. this series is amazing. i'm excited to read the forever song which i wont get for a few more weeks. sadly. but still cant wait to see what happens.

    ReplyDelete
  38. I can't quite decide between Kanin and Jackal.....I love both of them equally!!

    ReplyDelete
  39. Definitely Jackal! :) Thanks for the giveaway:)

    ReplyDelete
  40. Besides the obvious choices in the main characters, I really liked Lucas, the boy from Allie's group at the beginning, even for the short time he was with us.

    ReplyDelete
  41. My favorite character is Caleb. He's so cute and innocent! And he loves goats! He doesn't judge people/vampires based on what they are "defined" as. He loves Allie and that other person (not going to spoil!) even though they are vampires. He knows what is in the inside is what counts and so do actions; he doesn't blindly judge people or make assumptions. :)

    ReplyDelete
  42. Jackal!! Thanks for the giveaway!

    ReplyDelete
  43. I think Kanin said it :) I love Allie!!

    ReplyDelete
  44. Why haven't there been audiobook versions of your last couple books?

    ReplyDelete
  45. My favorite character is Allie. She is awesome!

    ReplyDelete
  46. I cant decide between Kanin and Jackal. They are both so different yet so special.

    ReplyDelete
  47. Favorite character is Allie. She is amazing with her katana and she really grows and I enjoy learning her struggle. Especially how before her view was more to protect herself and then she put her own safety behind those she loves. I really liked that. Plus she is beast

  49. Allie is my favorite character.I love me a kick butt heroine and I love seeing her as she struggles with being a vampire but holding onto her humanity.

    ReplyDelete
  50. My favorite in order: Allison, Zeke, Jackal, Kanin, Caleb & Darren

    ReplyDelete
  51. My favourite character is Sarren, because we all secretly loved that psycopath

    ReplyDelete
  52. I can't like. Zeke has to be the character I want more, more and more of!

    ReplyDelete
  53. Hmm my favorite would be Allie!

    ReplyDelete
  54. Jackal. Humour makes everything better (;

    ReplyDelete
  55. My favorite character is Kanin! He's just plain awesome

    ReplyDelete
  56. As much as I love Allie, I'm going to have to go with Zeke!

    ReplyDelete
  57. I just LOVED this book! This is one of my all time favorite series! My favorite character is by far Jackal! He is so snarky!!! Love it!

    ReplyDelete
  58. I like several of the characters, but I find myself always wanting to know more about Kanin. I haven't read Forever Song yet, so maybe there's more about him in this last book. I can't wait to find out!

    ReplyDelete
  59. Kanin for the win!

    ReplyDelete
  60. If our guesses aren't right, we've still got the chance to win-right?;-)
    I think, it's Sarren (if he is still in the story ... haven't red the 2. Part ... less than one month till it's out-in German ;-)
    So I think Sarren !
    My fav caracter is Kanin !

    betzceline@gmail.com

    ReplyDelete
  61. No 1 favorite would definitely be Allie! Then maybe Kanin. :))

    ReplyDelete
  62. It would have to be Allison, of course. :)

    ReplyDelete
  63. allie !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

    ReplyDelete
  64. I cannot believe I'm saying this but my favorite is Jackal. (I still love Zachary though) Thanks so much! :)

    ReplyDelete
  65. I love all the characters to much it's hard to choose a favourite! Allie kicks butt, Zeke who keeps her grounded, Jackal because he is so unpredictable and Kanin because he is so mysterious!

    ReplyDelete
  66. Yay! Thank you Julie. So glad it's international!

    1. My favourite character is no doubt Allie because she's a badass heroine!

      Delete
  67. It's difficult to decide between Kanin and Jackal. Although I think Jackal can be a real ass, his ambitions make a lot of sense despite his somewhat questionable methods of entertainment. So I guess Jackal it is.

    ReplyDelete
  68. I would love to win I've never read this series but I read the iron fey series and loved it

    ReplyDelete
  69. I haven't read this series yet, but I love all the jackal quotes I've seen.

    ReplyDelete
  70. My favorite character is Kanin. He's so wise and strong and mysterious. He's the most intriguing person in the series.

    ReplyDelete
  71. My favourite character is Jackal. I really hope he gets a spin-off series in the future as that's something I would love to read. Thanks for the giveaway!

    ReplyDelete
  72. My favorite is Allie!

    Thank you for the giveaway, and for making it international. :D

    ReplyDelete
  73. I love Allie! I can't wait to see her kick butt in the finale!!

    Thanks for the giveaway!

    ReplyDelete
  74. Favorite character is Zeke, always. <3 I love him so so much. He is just the best. Sigh. So sweet and real. I love reading about him. Though I do love Allie as well :D Thank you so much for this giveaway Julie. <3

    ReplyDelete
  75. Jackal, who doesn't love the want to be good bad boy.

    ReplyDelete
  76. Allie! :) Thanks for a giveaway! :)

    ReplyDelete
  77. Kanin is definitely my favorite character

    ReplyDelete

  79. Jackal will always be my favorite. He's so obnoxious and a loud mouth, but hilarious.

    ReplyDelete
  80. I haven't read the sequel yet, I'll probably read it soon so my answer may change, but I absolutely love Kanin. I turned each page of the first book fearing he'd get offed!

    ReplyDelete
  81. Definitely Kanin! But Allie is great too obviously!

    ReplyDelete
  82. I can't wait to read this :)

    ReplyDelete
  83. I didn't think I would say this, but I'm liking Jackal a lot as a character! :D

    ReplyDelete
  84. I like Kanin. I have liked him since the beginning. There's just something about him. But I also like Allie.

    ReplyDelete
  85. My favorite character is probably Allie:) but Kanin is a very close second!

    ReplyDelete
  86. That is seemingly a hard question. I like Jackal mainly because he is Jackal, I find Kanin to be this poetic beautiful disaster which is compelling, Caleb is that kid that puts inocence in this book and it is admirable, Zeke is the one everyone would adore because of his selflessness, bravery and that sweetest form of smile that just makes you smile. But my favourite character would be Allie. I know she is all strong and badass but thats not what makes her my favourite. What struck me about her was that she was more human rather than being the monster. She was hypocrite when she said she loathes vampires and then became one herself. She did not became that hard stone cold mysterious girl instead she chose to be herself though hid a part of herself because she cared for others. She became a warrior who fell, stood, fell and stood again. She is willing to sacrifice for others. Thats why she is my favourite because she is much more human than she thinks.
    Thankyou for the giveaway! You are amazing Julie!

    ReplyDelete
  87. Kanin because he's Kanin. Thank you, Julie, for the giveaway, you're the best :D

    ReplyDelete
  88. My favorite character is Allie I can in a way relate to her I also like Kanin

    ReplyDelete
  89. I haven't read the series even though I have the first book, I am re-reading The Iron Fey series right now. Thanks for the giveaway!! :)

    ReplyDelete
  90. Allie but kanin is a close second ;) and it had to be sarren who said that with the bird reference :) can't wait to read this next book but I'm saving it as a treat for after my exams :D

    ReplyDelete
  91. So hard to choose...Zeke, Jackal, Kanin...I think I have to pick Allie though...she's become my favourite heroine! I adore her! She grew so much but kept her snark and charm! Loved her to pieces!! Thanks for the give-away!

    ReplyDelete
  92. I think is Allie but it sounds like Zeke too

    ReplyDelete
  93. I haven't started this series yet, but I do have the first two books and will read them as soon as I get my hands on the Forever Song.

    ReplyDelete
  94. Allie's pretty great, but Jackal is just too entertaining <3 Definitely my favourite

    ReplyDelete
  95. Oh how I'd love a signed copy of the Forever Song! Thanks for the chance to win!!!!
    I can't pick a favourite character..........Kanin.....no wait Allie......but Jackal.......I LOVE ALL THREE OF THEM SO MUCH! They're all great in their own ways!

    ReplyDelete
  96. That's such a hard question but right now I have to say Kanin. I love this series and thank you for the giveaway!:)

    ReplyDelete
  97. Allie hands down! She's badass!

    ReplyDelete
  98. My favourite character? Well, that's pretty tough. Obviously I love Allie and Zeke! But I love Jackal with his wisecracks and Kanin, cause he's just plain epic.
    So, therefore, my favourite is........ Um um um,

    Uh, the rabids. For the sake of indecision. They are scary as heck but they amuse me. If they even count, lol.

  102. So excited for Blood of Eden #3. My favorite character would be Jackal.

    I'm so excited to read this :)

  105. My favorite charcter is Zeke. :)

    ReplyDelete
  106. It has to be Allie for me. She's a bad ass female role model who has been dealt a bad hand and made the most of it rather than give up. She always manages to keep going no matter how bad things get or what stands in her way. Her humanity makes her approachable and you feel for her struggles and I love the fact she cares and isn't the heartless monster she thought she would have to be :)

  109. Well that is a really tricky question! Honestly I love Kanin and Jackal! They both have a warm place in my heart! I am sooo looking forward to reading The Forever Song!

  110. Kanin, for sure, he is my child. I just want to wrap a blanket around him, sit him in front of a fire, pat his head and tell him everything will be okay... IF HE WAS STILL ALIVE. KANIN COME BACK TO ME.

    ReplyDelete
  111. Jackal and Allie. They're hilarious!

    ReplyDelete
  112. Jackal - because he is so hilarious! He brings a spot of sunlight in this grim series (not that I don't love the darkness) and his banter with Allison always amuse me.

    ReplyDelete
  113. jackal I love all funny people omg

    ReplyDelete
  114. Thanks for the giveaway and my favourite character would be the handsome vampire Jackal! ^^

    ReplyDelete
  115. I love them all, I really do! But Jackal is so hilarious, he reminds me so much of Ian Somerhalder, same attitude and smart remarks!

    ReplyDelete
  116. I haven't read any of the series yet, so I don't have a favorite character yet.

    ReplyDelete
  117. Zeke has a special place in my heart, I can't deny it. All his struggles and his kindness and his faith in a better world.. Though Kanin was such an interesting and fascinating character from the beginning!! I don't know, I an't decide! Maybe.. Zeke!

    ReplyDelete
  118. I'm so excited for this,thank you

    ReplyDelete
  119. Jackal, he just brought the right amount of sarcasm and humour to release the tension throughout the story. Would love to see a spinoff all about him

    ReplyDelete
  120. Hands down Zeke. Allie and Jackal tied for second because of her kick butt amazingness, and Jackal for his sarcasm.

    ReplyDelete
  121. Jackaaaaal! I love him! He is so funny and hilarious:) And badass!

    ReplyDelete
  122. Most of the times I like male characters more than the female protagonist but I must admit that your Allie is amazing.

    ReplyDelete
  123. Iam a bit of a dog so I'll stick with what I know and say Jackal

    ReplyDelete
  124. By far Zeke! He his awesome. Thanks so much for the giveaway , Julie!

    ReplyDelete
  125. ALL OF THEM EXCEPT SAREN, OBVIOUSLY. Okay, but really, I love Allie. She's tough. I think she is an excellent heroine!

    ReplyDelete
  126. Sorry, but how do we know that we won this giveaway?...And when
