She has let me down so much that this was the third strike.

I totally lost interest in them a few books back and when I see the first ones in my pile I kind of sigh at what was.Kristie (J)https://www.blogger.com/profile/15743921647882733738noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15898979.post-1151519048170716792006-06-28T13:24:00.000-05:002006-06-28T13:24:00.000-05:00Yep, I totally agree with that!

I will...Hi, thanks for stopping by and commenting. I will remain optimistic that these books will get better. I really think that Kenyon needs to cut back on her schedule. She's got like, what, 5 series going on? This book, in particular felt kinda slapdash to me, particularly the ending. It really confirmed that the 'romance' was secondary to the Nick/Ash doings.Devonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12526459179535104279noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15898979.post-1151331559818831282006-06-26T09:19:00.000-05:002006-06-26T09:19:00.000-05:00If you are not a reader of this series, I'll just ...<I>If you are not a reader of this series, I'll just let you know that when Dark-Hunters get together, their powers begin to drain. So they're all in a circle, getting converged upon. And the Japanese one's got his nunchakus, and the African one's got a gold chain (???) and the Wild West outlaw's got her bullwhip...and no one's got a fucking gun. Geezus kee-rist, that might even the odds a bit. Just take'em all out. I don't how I never noticed that before. I also have to mention the following sentence: "As far back as she could remember, Jimmy had kept anal notes in his journal (p.143)" Am I crazy, or is this a weird sentence? I stopped and was like, "Notes about anal sex? Notes from his anus? Oh, she means he was anal-retentive about keeping his journal." No? Maybe it's just me</I><BR/><BR/><BR/>LMAO!!! Dude I like your style, I have to visit more often. I was actually LOL at work!

You said all the things I was thinking and ...AMEN! You said all the things I was thinking and feeling whilst reading this rather pathetic addition to the DH's. <BR/><BR/>I think the thing that bothers me the most about the direction her series is headed is her refusal to stick to the rules SHE created. I understand that these books aren't based in reality. But if you're going to create a world, then you have to follow the rules you set for that world as well, right? Well, SK hasn't done that. I also hate that she's changing the core of characters we've known since the beginning.<BR/><BR/>Yes, Nick is pissed about the whole deal with Ash, but he's just acting like a whiny little kid, IMO. WTF? <BR/><BR/>Basically, I'm with you..I'm so glad I borrowed this book, rather than spending my hard earned money on it. <BR/><BR/>Very good review, I really like thos blog! ;)Hollyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15410951433962652780noreply@blogger.com
