Sixteen-year-old Evangeline "Evie" Greene leads a charmed life, until she begins experiencing horrifying hallucinations. When an apocalyptic event decimates her Louisiana hometown, Evie realizes her hallucinations were actually visions of the future—and they're still happening. Fighting for her life and desperate for answers, she must turn to her wrong-side-of-the-bayou classmate: Jack Deveaux.
But she can't do either alone.
With his mile-long rap sheet, wicked grin, and bad attitude, Jack is like no boy Evie has ever known. Even though he once scorned her and everything she represented, he agrees to protect Evie on her quest. She knows she can't totally depend on Jack. If he ever cast that wicked grin her way, could she possibly resist him?
Who can Evie trust?
As Jack and Evie race to find the source of her visions, they meet others who have gotten the same call. An ancient prophesy is being played out, and Evie is not the only one with special powers. A group of twenty-two teens has been chosen to reenact the ultimate battle between good and evil. But it's not always clear who is on which side.

So what to say about Poison Princess.....It was AMAZING! I am a little bummed that this isn't a three book trilogy since I had the third book via the library. I will now be waiting to finish this series next year.
The characters were all fab. I do think that Evie needs to grow a pair though. I mean she has this amazing gift she needs to embrace it. The ending to this one is killer! And I'm trying so hard not to read book two. I really loved how the author worked the Tarot into this story. It was perfect!
The story is a little on the slower side but only in parts and it doesn't slow down the progress of the book in the least. The POV is in Evie's with two short parts being in lovely stalker POV. But that worked out really well.
I was really worried that I wasn't going to like this one as it starts out with this creepy guy talking about kidnapping Evie. But, once you start reading you forget that Evie is telling her story to this dude. So that worked out really well.
This one had some great twists and turns. A boy that we still don't really know if he is a card or not. Which with the ending if he is were all going to scream. At times I was saying that Jack was an a** then he would do something so nice and thoughtful AAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!
