I love what you said about Werlin's style, because more often than not, that makes of breaks the book for me, sometimes regardless of contest. I can read tons of fluff if it sounds like the Mona Lisa looks (ha-I'm so cheesy!) That being said, here is my response to your comment to me today: I didn't use anyone as a referral (for Random Buzzers) cuz I didn't know Kare's username! Darn, I totes coulda used ya! Well you coulda told me about it too silly! I def woulda used ya then! Doh! So did you get Nightshade yet? I wanna post your & my reviews on it to give it some contrast. Then I wanna pick your brain about it. I gotta finish reading it though so I can find the right questions to ask you!

I was having a bad day yesterday and seeing that made me feel a LOT better! <br /><br />@Brooke: Oh, I thought the vines were gorgeous. How many books do you see that in, you know? I enjoyed the morals in the story too, but I would have liked them even more if it was executed in a better way and I don't think they were. <br /><br />@Danielle: Thank you! :) I actually usually include more than one quote, but I only wrote down one memorable quote for this book. There just weren't any others I found that memorable. =x<br /><br />@Tracy: Aw, thank you! I tried being a little "teaser-ish" with it. ;)<br /><br />@Danna: Hahaha! Aw, that made my day too! You definitely get brownie points for the "frazzletastic review" comment! xD I do intend to check out Impossible when I get the chance - I've heard it was definitely good! I can show you how to block quote if you like? :)<br /><br />@Sam: I know - I honestly was hoping it would be better than it was. I've read Nancy Werlin's books before (I had no clue at the time, of course :P) and have loved them. Plus I heard some great reviews about Extraordinary. But the "hype" didn't live up. =x The cover is definitely an A+ though!Kristina Barnes♥https://www.blogger.com/profile/08979145078007906681noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1535745233097612547.post-61013111391345120832010-10-27T06:45:59.343-07:002010-10-27T06:45:59.343-07:00I agree, the cover is just beautiful.

I just put up my review for this book too. I actually agree with you that I wanted to know more about the faeries, but I liked the moral behind it.Brooke Thttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01486348117472268941noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1535745233097612547.post-88196489949070345072010-10-26T19:06:09.673-07:002010-10-26T19:06:09.673-07:00Booo!

You write really great reviews that offer a balanced look at books.<br />3. I think that you successfully looked at the positives and negatives of this book.<br />4. I may give this book another try at some point to see if I can finish it. <br /><br />Of course, my first comment was a lot better but it really boils down to I love your blog and your reviews!Literature for Lunchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04029525975978674907noreply@blogger.com
