I just thought it took WAY too long to get to the point and there was a little TOO much build up.

It was too slow for me in the beginning also, there were so many question left unanswered that I felt slightly lost at the end. I know there is going to be a sequel, but that was my major concern! <br />Glad you enjoyed it, I think it was a great book with a lot of potential for the sequel!Dannyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05998128531860725536noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6490929628839780909.post-81380629002797187482012-06-16T02:34:50.014-05:002012-06-16T02:34:50.014-05:00I'm so glad you enjoyed this one, Kimberly.

I was actually looking forward to seeing more of the addiction to lightning, but it's hardly mentioned. I guess it just wasn't what I was expecting. :/<br />Great review, Kimberly. :DAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
