I think because I’ve already forged such a bond with these characters. I cannot wait until the 4th book. The sooner the better!!<br /><a href="http://www.skydivesnohomish.com/" rel="nofollow">Skydiving Seattle click here</a>Cath Brookeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05890209675194138368noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7047843651411739466.post-41662612515313989312013-11-24T22:09:43.709-05:002013-11-24T22:09:43.709-05:00Ehhh yeah...

For this book, Isaiah's story turned out to be like every other YA boy;s story and I guess that disappointed me. He had a good backstory and I thought she would do a little something different with it. <br /><br />There was just SO much going on.

I did have issues with things in this book -- including the way the panic attacks were used in the plot -- and will have to email you about that. The book was so over the top -- her super-evil family, the scenery-chewing Eric -- that the ending kind of worked for me in a weird way...<br /><a href="http://jenryland.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">Jen @ YA Romantics</a><br />Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04756695137600895936noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7047843651411739466.post-58170104826963100992013-11-23T03:49:43.230-05:002013-11-23T03:49:43.230-05:00I have not read this series, and don't plan on...I have not read this series, and don't plan on, but don't hate yourself.

I ...I found PtL to be cliche but I loved it anyway. I just felt that Isaiah's story was pretty generic and yeah - Rachel and her family almost ventured into sci-fi territory. I don't think I've hated characters so much. <br /><br />From the teasers I thought she was going to be pretty bad ass. It's fine that she wasn't but her personality never really showed through in a way that made sense to me.

I think I gave it 3 stars, but that's because I love McGarry's writing, even when I don't love the story. Plus, Isaiah. <br /><br />There really was way too much going on. I hated Rachel's family, and something about her characterization just felt... off... for me. <br /><br />Anyway, great review. You are not alone.

Not sure I want to read the stories about them. Those guys were all kind of buttholes. But I enjoyed the angst and drama (over the top? Yes. Definitely. I mean, go to the cops, people.

That's exactly the expression I needed. It annoys me to no end when authors do this. <br />For me, both Isaiah and Rachel were a huge disappointment. <br />I love that we're review twins today. Same book, similar thoughts. It makes me feel loads better. :DMaja (The Nocturnal Library)https://www.blogger.com/profile/14276646316400863181noreply@blogger.com
