“HilaryDuff has given paranormal a whole new spin. Elixir has a fresh voice, greatplot twists and an ending that left me wanting the next book in the series…when [both] the plot twists and the love triangle intensify with Clea, Sage and Ben, Iwas hooked and couldn’t stop reading it. A powerful centuries-old secretreveals some character twists, uncovers a great mythology and makes for afascinating plot.” –mundiemoms.com
"I can honestly say that when I came to the last page of the novel I was sad. I didn’t want the story to end, and am excited at the thought of a second novel. Clea’s story is so captivating that i felt like i was living in her world and watching it unfold before my eyes. Elixir is so far the best book I’ve read in 2010!" –Alex at Twilight Series Theories
"Elixir will work…for fans of Lisa McMann's Wake trilogy: …the dream elements, the idea of the incubus, and the mystery will appeal to these readers." –stacked.blogspot.com
"The dialogue was great. I really connected with it, because as a teen I know what it’s like to read a forced attempt of an adult trying to sound like a teen—and there was none of that in this book. Hilary’s voice was great! I loved the fluidity of her words." –Esmerelda at Dreamz of a YA Writer
