I loved the book but I was also...Very good review! I loved the book but I was also looking at her "sappy" moments as the fact that she wasn't wearing her device to hold in her sympath side. Now, what that did though was make me think she should have been meaner in other parts than she was. That being said, my favorite part was the JM/Tohr and Tohr/Darius interactions. I am a little disappointed that JM did not find out his history but that makes me wonder if she is ever going to have him remember it. She might be saving that for a Tohr book which you just know has to happen at some point (though he needs to heal more first and any excuse to have more Lassiter is fine by me)! The BnB, I didn't figure that out but I thought it was so out of place in the book. Then when I did get who it was, I thought there has to be a better way to re-introduce him. Though since he has no contact with any of them, I don't know how that would have been done. So maybe that was a no win situation. I am curious about Payne--it does seem everyone but V pretty much knew her or met her at some point. I think Mom will pay for that one.Felicia the Geeky Bloggerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03960623537536038059noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4272447557425149349.post-20524732295638589762010-05-12T11:19:33.482-07:002010-05-12T11:19:33.482-07:00Amy I have to agree with you on many of your point...Amy I have to agree with you on many of your points. I too waited with abated breath for the release of this book to see where it was going to take us in JM's and Xhex life. I felt some of the situations in the book where predictable for those of us who follow the WARDEN on the side and knew of who was going to be in the book. I knew in no time who was living in the NC bed and breakfast and kept wondering when the heck all this southern biz was going to tie into the story. And it gave a few hints for the future of Payne and that even Xhex knew her from the past..it seems almost everyone knew Payne except for the most important person in her life! I feel I was reading a series of flashes in a way...this felt like a bridge book...giving you all the info you will need for future books. I too will not stop reading the series but hoping for a brighter future. Loved your review. <br /><br />~ginaginae65https://www.blogger.com/profile/07578338717730020860noreply@blogger.com
