Wings


Back Cover:

Laurel was memorized starring at the pale things with wide eyes.  They were terrifyingly beautiful- too beautiful for words.  Laurel turned to the mirror again, her eyes on the hovering petals that floated beside her head.  They looked almost like wings.  In this extraordinary tale of magic and intrigue, romance and danger, everything you thought you knew about faeries will be changed forever.

My thoughts:

I got this book for free on my nook.  Every Friday Barnes and Noble will give you a free e-book. A lot of the time they're not that good.  Which is probably why they are free.  Anyway, the back cover is really what made me want to read it.  And when I started reading it I thought, "Wow.  She has a flower growing out of her back...I'm just a bit speechless."  Now I'm not sure if this speechlessness came about because I wasn't sure if I wanted to laugh or trash the e-book.  I'm still not sure, even after reading it.  I will say this: the plot and characters were entertaining.  But that was about their extent in value.  It just seems like the book had no meaning.  Like the Aprilynne Pike was just bored so she decided to just slap something together and call it a book.  Over all, I had no idea Ms.Twilight Saga Lady liked it.  Had I known that I would never of picked it up in the first place.  As most of you know, I'm not much of a fan.  In other thoughts, there were a lot of good action scene.  That was a thumbs up from me.  I love action scenes.  Well, folks, I think that this book has officially disrupted my phase for anything SiFi or Fantasy. I'll have my posts up for everything I've read so far soon. Until then, I give this book two stars for effort, creativity with the action scenes and that's about it.  I take away three start for lack of creativity in everything else, unnecessary discussion topics and because the characters never really changed. Well except Laurel of course. She is now a plant.

    I've seen quite a few posts about this book and I have to admit that I feel no real desire to read it.

    In any case I just wanted to let you know that I'm following both your blogs after seeing 'A Not So Ridiculous Education' listed among Gabriel Reads' recommendations.

    I hope you are having a nice weekend.
