Disappointing because this is my favorite genre right now. I liked it, then I didn't like it, then I loved it, then I hated it. Do not be fooled by the numerous raving reviews you'll find for this book, particular on Amazon. It's lauded as something original, clever, boundary-pushing. The worst part is, it could have been. Could have. But it's not. I can understand why people want to like this book. There is something there, a wonderful idea for a story that might have been great if treated right; unfortunately, it was completely mangled by horrifically poor editing and a completely unlikable protagonist. I can overlook a few typos, especially considering this is a self-published book. But come page after page of glaring mistakes, bad composition, and juvenile characterization, I was practically offended that anyone would put this forth as a "finished" product. It's a very rough, unpolished work that should never have been published in its current state. Yes, there are good qualities, but these good points of the book -- even the truly excellent ones -- are completely overshadowed. aucune critique | ajouter une critique
Appartient à la sérieThe Little Goddess (original 1)
Little Goddess: Book One Working graveyards in a gas station seems a small price for Cory to pay to get her degree and get the hell out of her tiny town. She's terrified of disappearing into the aimless masses of the lost and the young who haunt her neck of the woods. Until the night she actually stops looking at her books and looks up. What awaits her is a world she has only read about-one filled with fantastical creatures that she's sure she could never be. And then Adrian walks in, bearing a wealth of pain, an agonizing secret, and a hundred and fifty years with a lover he's afraid she won't understand. In one breathless kiss, her entire understanding of her own worth and destiny is turned completely upside down. When her newfound world explodes into violence and Adrian's lover-and prince-walks into the picture, she's forced to explore feelings and abilities she's never dreamed of. The first thing she discovers is that love doesn't fit into nice neat little boxes. The second thing is that risking your life is nothing compared to facing who you really are-and who you'll kill to protect. Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |

I think the world building is really interesting, and I like the Urban Fantasy setting, which I don't always get into. ( )
