I wish I had had the wherewithal to explain it that way! I am going to steal that explanation for my Goodreads review, thanks. This book sounds like something I might like and would try if there weren't so many "have to" reads. Thanks for the review. :)La La in the Libraryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18253014225202985934noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3634501776293792112.post-63423852774538466902015-03-21T13:39:25.186-04:002015-03-21T13:39:25.186-04:00Gorgeous review Alyssa. <3 I'm glad you lik...Gorgeous review Alyssa. <3 I'm glad you liked this book, despite some issues with it :D I think the cover is SO PRETTY. But I won't be buying this one. Though I haven't even read the summary for it.. I suck, lol. But don't think it is for me. At what you say about the romance. It do sound good, and no triangle, but I also think that there will most likely be a triangle coming. Ugh. And I would hate that. And it usually happens. Hmph. So I'm staying away for now, hah :D Anyway. Thank you for sharing your thoughts about it sweetie. <3Carina Olsenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10962924929801205597noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3634501776293792112.post-54815737112865748452015-03-19T21:08:39.008-04:002015-03-19T21:08:39.008-04:00I hope you love it more than I did!

I have this up for review and I'm crossing my fingers that I'll enjoy the writing as I usually kinda go ga-ga over rich atmosphere, but I'll keep your warning of the slow beginning in mind as that can be hard to push through sometimes.<br />Thanks for the great review, Alyssa :)Book Swoonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10065445455788158131noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3634501776293792112.post-67126499720446071582015-03-18T23:07:15.268-04:002015-03-18T23:07:15.268-04:00You're right to be wary, Benish!You're right to be wary, Benish!Alyssahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00128004483437247740noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3634501776293792112.post-12243021250395643132015-03-18T23:07:00.243-04:002015-03-18T23:07:00.243-04:00I hope you enjoy it, Pili!I hope you enjoy it, Pili!Alyssahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00128004483437247740noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3634501776293792112.post-14480816030071520022015-03-18T23:06:46.926-04:002015-03-18T23:06:46.926-04:00I doubt you're the "black sheep"... ...I doubt you're the "black sheep"...

I liked it more than the middle to end. I really dug Headley's writing style so I didn't mind the slower pace. I'm with you...a LOT of telling. I had a very clear image too but I needed more background about Magonia. I hope she delves into that in the next book. Overall I thought it was so strange and I did like it a lot.
