Unless I hear that it's magically WAY better than the first one. I'm curious to see what happens, but I'll probably try and find review spoilers instead of actually reading it.Ashley @ Book Labyrinthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02395484656811182553noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8478898940547681471.post-40508202583385513942011-07-22T14:42:17.786-04:002011-07-22T14:42:17.786-04:00You did an excellent job of setting out why this b...You did an excellent job of setting out why this book didn't work for you.

I can overlook a lot of little flaws with a story if I like the characters and they draw me in, but it's nearly impossible to get involved when you just don't like the people you're reading about. Thanks for the review Ashley, this one is getting pushed down the TBR pile a bit.Jennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14199685365145765394noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8478898940547681471.post-51846654666060640552011-07-21T10:50:42.335-04:002011-07-21T10:50:42.335-04:00I completely agree!

I agree that the Furies part of the book was left too close to the end and not enough focus was put on their purpose, how they got there, their abilities, etc. Maybe the sequel will be better?Laura (All the Word's a Page)https://www.blogger.com/profile/11041070102753358739noreply@blogger.com
