I don't remember who recommended this book to me, but when I do, that's it..we are no longer friends. This is the most god-awful rubbish I have ever hI don't remember who recommended this book to me, but when I do, that's it..we are no longer friends. This is the most god-awful rubbish I have ever had the misfortune of listening to. And here I thought Zombies & Calculus was the worst book I've ever read..Ok, it's actually # 1, but The Radley's are right behind it and so close that they could become one. The characters are boring and bland. The story line has as much excitement as a Gilmour Girls episode. I swear at certain points I thought my head might explode from the doldrum bullshit storyline. Please...someone tell me that his other books are not like this....more
What in the wide blue fuck was this garbage? These were the most boring group of characters that I have ever has the displeasure to read about. I can What in the wide blue fuck was this garbage? These were the most boring group of characters that I have ever has the displeasure to read about. I can sum up the story in a few sentences...
Branna working Branna hating Finn Branna whining about cooking and cleaning but still does it. Everyone gets together and eats Everyone agrees that no one should go anywhere by themselves No one listens and wanders off by themselves to be attacked by Cabhan the evil sorcerer Someone has to be healed because they run into Cabhan the evil sorcerer.
Rinse and repeat. Oh and throw in a couple sex scenes with Finn and Branna.
There you have the gist of the book. The ending is about as exciting as a tooth extraction. ...more
There seems to be a running theme among the reviews with this book and that is quite a few people got about 1/4 to 1/2 through the book and DNF it. I There seems to be a running theme among the reviews with this book and that is quite a few people got about 1/4 to 1/2 through the book and DNF it. I am one of those individuals and no it's not "just me" syndrome. This book reminded me of IKEA furniture. It's all there..in a box...but it's not assembled. If you look at all the elements you can see a really fantastic story, but the way it was put together was...for lack of a better word..BAD. Their was no connection to the MC of the story and the way the story was being told was a bit confusing and didn't make sense. Several times I went back and re-read a chapter because I thought I missed something. No, that wasn't it. This was just bad....more
I don't know what it is lately with me and my book choices, but I need an intervention. The last ones have been snooze fests or just plain horrible. WI don't know what it is lately with me and my book choices, but I need an intervention. The last ones have been snooze fests or just plain horrible. Well horrible for me anyways. I'd give this a 1, but in all honesty, it's me that has the problem. The subject matter is boring AF. I don't drink wine, nor have I ever drank wine. I love witches, but a wine witch is just not my thing. Now if there was a beer witch or a bloody mary witch, I'd be all up on that. But wine and wine making bores me to tears. Sorry to those that really loved it....more
