Still haven’t written my review of this one. I liked it a bit more than you did, but only a bit more. But I absolutely agree that this one needed an editor in the worst way!

I did like Hush, Hush, even though I’m completely aware of all its faults. I think I’m going to stay away from this one, though.

Yeah, I found this pretty underwhelming. But I’ll probably end up reading the next one because I’m hoping it’ll get past the school/romance stuff and more into the angel stuff.

I agree with Catherine that some padding just needs to be edited out in some cases. I’ve seen this book and definitely want to read it, though.

I did like Hush, Hush, but I had problems with it, and probably gave it a higher rating than it deserved; not sure if I’ll like this one or not.

There seems to be a trend in padded books – the stuff that could have been trimmed and made tighter through editing… but hasn’t.

I think this book would have been perfect at 250 pages. I didn’t see the need for it to go on and on and on. Unlike Beautiful Creatures there was really nothing happening here.

I find it interesting how different people receive books. I see all the points you’re making. I haven’t read heaps of book in this genre, so maybe that’s why I liked it. Hopefully the next book you read will be more enjoyable.

Yeah, I think I’ll give this one a miss. What is it with all these samey supernatural romances? *frustrated*

Incredibly cool rating widget! I just wanted to say that I HATE it when prologues are spoilers. WTF? Have this on the shelf, and will get to it, but I dunno when :o) Great review!
