Maybe it's because I'm still pissed about the movie, or maybe I'm done with the 'world', but I haven't managed to get the motivation to buy it.

There's also a prequel novella that I'm thinking may actually be important to read. I did enjoy it and I think it has potential, but it seems like the authors just assumed that you had just finished reading the series and everything was fresh. Some explanation would have been helpful. ~Pamyaescapefromrealityhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08200254719073248981noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4122122426051336537.post-28544449435299852172014-05-16T14:04:34.806-05:002014-05-16T14:04:34.806-05:00Great reviews.

I remember finding Ridley's character really intriguing in the book, but I didn't really like her that much. It sounds like an interesting idea for a series, but I'm not sure it's for me. Especially if it just kind of drops you in the story and expects you to know what's going on.

I liked Beautiful Creatures, but I'm kind of done with the world you know? And from what you say, Pam, it doesn't really sound like it offers too much, at least in this first book. I think I'm going to be skipping this one.

I thought Ridley was human now? Is that a spoiler for the end of Beautiful Creatures or do I just not remember anything? *shrugs*. I do think Ridley and Link would make for an interesting pair of main characters. I LOVE Link. I'll keep this one on my radar.
