She had been through <i>so much</i> and the ultimatum was probably the cruelest thing he could have done. If I were a nail biter, my poor nails would have been bitten down to the quick as I frantically read on to see what Selene would do. <br /><br />There was a lot of internal cursing going on, too, and sobbing. I'm an emotional reader and you are a <i>very</i> evocative writer. :)Small Reviewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16072352095510905410noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8955420282479112508.post-46924228311883913402011-12-07T13:50:13.431-05:002011-12-07T13:50:13.431-05:00I hope you don't mind my poking my nose in to ...I hope you don't mind my poking my nose in to thank you for the lovely review, but I have to know...what moment was it that made you curse at the characters! ;)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07729283374222314144noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8955420282479112508.post-69103711037273917792011-11-09T16:39:55.336-05:002011-11-09T16:39:55.336-05:00Oooh you read part of the first book?

Berkley is a big name publisher (it's an imprint of Penguin), so you probably have a good chance of finding it in your local library.Small Reviewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16072352095510905410noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8955420282479112508.post-84089778602924405232011-11-09T14:31:05.786-05:002011-11-09T14:31:05.786-05:00So I was super impressed by what I read of the fir...So I was super impressed by what I read of the first book. But, like Bergren's series, I'm now all hopped up on excitement to read this. It sounds exciting, dangerous, and sexy. Which, of course, are some of my favorite elements! I'm so picking up this series! This can be found in local libraries, right?<br /><br />- Asher (from <i><a href="http://paranormalindulgence.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">Paranormal Indulgence</a></i>)Marathonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12998824096375362353noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8955420282479112508.post-79516806973896894782011-11-08T20:05:40.544-05:002011-11-08T20:05:40.544-05:00Jen, haha good call :) I really can't wait to ...Jen, haha good call :) I really can't wait to see what you think of it. Especially Helios. <br /><br />Leanna, I hope you like it! They're probably among my favorite historical fiction books ever. <br /><br />Alex, :D I LOVED it. <br /><br />Heather, It really does completely sweep you away. I totally lost track of time when I was reading these books. Some books I'm always looking at the clock or my page number, but not with these books. <br /><br />Little Dhampir, I loved it.
