Probably not the point, but hey.<br /><br />Since I've got this one at home I'll definitely still give it a go, but I'm inclined to think I'll agree with you.

Michelle-...Shannon--That's the goddamn truth! <br /><br />Michelle--I've never read the society girl stuff but I hear it's good. I think there was a little to much society in this book and not enough kicking ass.<br /><br />Briz--It's a rather unusual premise and I'm not surprised it doesn't sit well with all. I'm willing to entertain subversive takes on fluffy cute creatures in this case. Just could have down with less boy stuff. And my current and last reads (Shadowed Summer, Swoon) is/are AWESOME!<br /><br />Aimee--Fingers crossed for 2010. Less vapid heroines and bland love interests, more magic, romance and kicking butt.Rhiannon Harthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03611927348379723038noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-109955980329789216.post-34502820087392493792010-01-07T21:19:14.683+11:002010-01-07T21:19:14.683+11:00*sighs LOUDLY*

Not because it means your read a disappointing book, but because I keep reading about all these people loving it for reasons that make me sort-of hate it even though I haven't even read it.<br />Unicorns should NOT be venemous and man-eating. They are magical and wonderful! We shouldn't have to have unicorn hunters. It makes me sick to my stomach just thinking about the premise of this book.<br />So even though that's not why you were disappointed, I'm glad that you were.<br />And I hope your next read will be AWESOME! :-)brizmushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18163313230550265190noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-109955980329789216.post-44383947751506737172010-01-07T16:55:53.358+11:002010-01-07T16:55:53.358+11:00Funny, I'm about 300 pages into it right now a...Funny, I'm about 300 pages into it right now and am having similar feelings.
