I can't even imagine what he's like! And a world you can almost believe. I love the line<br />"She was strong and capable, albeit perhaps a bit abrasive at times, but then again, who doesn't have their moments." Well said!! Great review!<br /><br />HeatherBURIED IN BOOKShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18205451716054533728noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-120760076447564855.post-71699168260735489882011-11-14T21:52:52.874-05:002011-11-14T21:52:52.874-05:00I'm glad you enjoyed this one, Melissa.

Geeze, between your review and Jenny @ Supernatural Snark's, I've got to move this to the top of my pile.

I had forgotten about Elle, but you are completely right on her, her flapper-style speak didn't come off quite authentic enough for me, but I found the main characters to be fully developed. And that villain? LOVED! I figured it out pretty early on and then was convinced I was wrong and then when it turned out I was right it just made things even more interesting. You rocked this review like whoa.Jennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14199685365145765394noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-120760076447564855.post-62397697924219633432011-11-14T13:28:23.681-05:002011-11-14T13:28:23.681-05:00Oh, wow!

I like that she's flawed enough to be accessible. The paranormal element sounds excellent.Alison Can Readhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17908868606441539344noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-120760076447564855.post-46891916155284706812011-11-14T10:00:34.289-05:002011-11-14T10:00:34.289-05:00this sounds really intriguing. you're right; i...this sounds really intriguing. you're right; i had never heard of it, so thanks for bringing it to my attention. i really love books with a theme of mythology (or mythological retellings) so this one catches my eye initially for that reason, but when you mention the villain, i am a little more interested. i love a great villain, even a vile one. <br /><br />loved reading your thoughts - thanks for sharing!Asheley T.https://www.blogger.com/profile/03908795522290889438noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-120760076447564855.post-26470726987638222552011-11-14T09:54:39.048-05:002011-11-14T09:54:39.048-05:00I was kind of on the border of wanting to read thi...I was kind of on the border of wanting to read this one and wanting to pass it over.
