Answer
Ever one knows how much I hate books were the characters are not human (that include vampires, angels, gods although i did love sweet evil . etc ) after reading Fallen I vouched that I will never read another paranormal books again I swear it had to be one of the worst books I have read... anyways that beside the point. So because Of my hatred anything not human i was very to hesitant to read this books
Starcrossed: When i first picked up starcrossed it was the cover that drew me in. I read the blurb but i was not to crazy about but I thought hey its only $1.50 and my boyfriend has just given me my monthly amazon £50 gift voucher why he bought this one in dollars is beyond me) Now if you read this book you will know that this books beginning is not the most interesting and is quite slow sow when i started reading it. I was like this book is boring and I got my money refunded but then my school librarian kept saying its a really good read and i should at least wait til the 75 page. And boy did i love it when i started reading it again I am as of now waiting for the next book in the series : The goddess.

Here is a book i thought i would love but hated
Stolen nights: OMG when this book came out I was over joyed I had loved the first book (about a vampire that becomes human)So when i realised that it would come to England 4 months before America I was dancing for Joy. But that was not the story when I read the book ... It was like the worst story I had ever read.I hated no scratch that hate is to nice of a word. There needs to be a new word to describe how much I despised this book. IT IN NO WAY HAD ANYTHING TO DO WITH THE FIRST ONE. Omg its was so bad in the first book it had the like the first chapter of this book. Let me just say that it was not even in the second book. I think the author most have been hit on the back of the head and caught amnesia before the release date or something. Or maybe she most have had a mid life crisis before the release date of the book and just decided to right a whole book from scratch that was complete utter rubbish and nonsense because even the blurb of the book was is not way the same as the book. How can someone be in love with someone for the WHOLE if one book. And then as soon as an old friend come back completely forgets about the guy she was saying she would die for in this first book!!!

Hey guys, Erin here! I thought I'd chime in on today's feature Friday. Normally I wouldn't pick up a book that I thought I wasn't going to like, but I won this e-book in a giveaway and thought what the hell, I'll give it a try. The books was:
Flesh by Kylie Scott. I think it was the genre that made me hesitant: Post Apocalyptic Erotica. I didn't even know that there were books out there like this, but I ended up loving it! I gave it 5 scorching, zombie blasting stars! It was HOT, funny, and suspenseful. Flesh isn't only a zombie horror/adventure story. While that is the setting of Flesh and there is plenty of blood and carnage, the heart of this book is about three people trying to find love, trust, and safety in a post-apocalyptic world that is literally in shambles around them. The relationship that develops between the three is unique, but so is their situation. If you're looking for something out of the box and are an open minded reader, I highly recommend you give this one a try!

I actually need to re-read Starcrossed again, because when I first read it.. I could not get into it, and I do have dreamless, so gonna give it another shot.
ReplyDeleteI agree on your 2nd count. But I never got around to reading Stolen Nights because I couldn't connect to the first book.
Thanks for stopping now.
I am now following you. :)

its a good thing you didnt read stolen nights ahhh i really hated that book
DeleteAhh see I love books where the characters aren't human! I did enjoy Starcrossed though! Thought it was good and it does have a bit of a slow start! Looking forward to reading book 3 now since we're getting slowly closer! Read book 2 as an ARC so I more than ready really! :)
ReplyDeleteHere's my Follow Friday
Have a GREAT weekend!
Old Follower :)
i was party of the goddess tour then it got canceled
DeleteHa I actually own Fallen but haven't yet read it. Yikes! I wonder what I'm going to find when I start it. Hopefully it doesn't ruin other paranormal books for me like it did you! :P New follower via GFC
ReplyDeleteI haven't read Starcrossed yet but I will have to check it out. I actually love books where the characters aren't human but I could see how it could be ruined if you read a book you really hated. Thanks for stopping by my FF! New Follower :-)

Here's My Feature & Follow Friday
I keep hearing about Starcrossed and I haven't gotten around to reading it yet, but really need to, I guess. New follower.
ReplyDeleteHuh, haven't read anything other than Starcrossed, though I'm not sure about that title anymore. When I read it, I liked it, but in hinsight, I wonder if I just *wanted* to like it so badly that I did? Because there are some things that are usually on my pet peeve list in there. XD
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by earlier, hope the both of you'll have a great weekend!
