I honestly didn't know what to expect going into this, but I can tell you one thing for sure after reading it - I will read anything by Alyssa Rose Ivy. She definitely has the ability to capture me with her writing and her characters. Flight is an amazing paranormal read and I was flying through the pages, with a smile on my face that I couldn't get rid of for the life of me for the entire time I was reading it. Levi is mysterious and possessive at times, but that boy is sexy as hell and can win me over any day! 
 I think what I liked most about this, surprisingly, was how quickly Allie came to terms with the paranormal world in the story. It was so refreshing when I actually thought about it. I honestly was bothered with it at first, because I couldn't understand how she would believe this world that Levi introduces to her so easily and quickly. But, when you think about it, in this day and age, why wouldn't you easily believe that it's true (if you were a character in a book, that is). I often get frustrated with how the female lead takes forever to realize that there are other other-worldly creatures that walk with humans. Allie took the whole thing pretty well, which is not to say she didn't have any adjustment period, but I found that the way Alyssa chose to move the plot along was invigorating, and though you might be a bit hesitant at first like I was, the story flows so smoothly and quickly, you'll realize it works out perfectly. 
 As far as female leads go, Allie is likable, for sure. She's a bit naive and innocent at times, but she's also determined, stubborn, and has a bit of an edge when needed. She definitely has her flaws and there were times I was mad at her, but overall, I really liked her. Probably the only thing that bugged me about her was how easily she let her attraction to Levi overshadow the things that he hides from her. I'm all about honesty, so I don't like it when a guy keeps things from the girl he cares about, which Levi tends to do a lot in Flight. I feel like Allie lets too many things slide and doesn't get enough answers. She definitely tries her best to keep Levi at arms length, but I would've liked her to get more out of him and held her ground better to be a more formidable heroine. 
 As for Levi? I'll give it to Allie, it's pretty hard to resist a guy like him. He's got the looks and the charm, plus his surprising supernatural aspect. Once you find out what he really is, you easily become intrigued and I love that Alyssa strayed from the common creatures and created a unique one of her own. Levi definitely made me mad at times, but like Allie, it was hard for me to stay mad at him. I seriously hated all the secrets and lies, and I hope those issues get addressed sooner or later. Despite that, Levi is a character you'll easily fall for. The tension and romance between him and Allie really kept things going for me and I reveled in every scene they shared together. 
 Flight is not your average paranormal read. Alyssa's creatures are different and the society she creates is pretty unique. I really loved her take on it all. There is a great amount of action, drama, romance, and good times in this book; plus it's set in New Orleans, which is a place I know little about and loved learning more of. Overall, it was a great introduction to what I'm sure will be an unforgettable series.
