Now I know why... very much appreciate your honest opinion on this.

I'm glad you liked it, it seems like is has some humor in it which is always good.

I really enjoyed their writing styles. Too bad on Consume, I haven't read that series and am in no hurry to pick it up.Jennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14199685365145765394noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11403564.post-193602646802130652014-01-21T13:48:15.240-05:002014-01-21T13:48:15.240-05:00Well good on you for completing off that series.

I can't speak about Justine Larbalastier because I've never read any of her stuff, but I know well Sarah Rees Brennan's talent for humour so it doesn't surprise me that it was a fun read!Ayleehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07639250102446794830noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11403564.post-1784145146003978642014-01-21T00:55:30.648-05:002014-01-21T00:55:30.648-05:00I haven't read Crave yet but I read a lot of m...I haven't read Crave yet but I read a lot of mixed reviews about it. As for Team Human, I've been meaning to read it but at the same time, there's something about it that always puts me off. I didn't know it was satire too! I almost always end up not liking satire but I guess I'll read more reviews about it first before deciding.

As for the other series, it seems like your average paranormal romance without any flair. I'm going to skip that one.

It's too bad this third one turned out to be such a bummer, though. Contrived plot devices are definitely annoying.<br /><br />And I like vampire romances so I might have to pick up TEAM HUMAN sometime soon! I've heard it's cute from other people, too.<br /><br />Wendy @ <a href="http://www.themidnightgarden.net/2014/01/going-rogue-burn-bright.html" rel="nofollow">The Midnight Garden</a>Wendy Darlinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13471461156849725177noreply@blogger.com
