Now that I know more about Avery, I know I've made the right decision. Although I really enjoy darker books, especially when they're done just right, unsympathetic heroines rarely work for me. I think i'd like Tane, though. :) Maja (The Nocturnal Library)https://www.blogger.com/profile/14276646316400863181noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6907235505822471522.post-30790406486070546452014-09-17T11:11:06.411-04:002014-09-17T11:11:06.411-04:00I started this one and couldn't get into it, b...I started this one and couldn't get into it, but I was hoping to give it another try. I think I might wait and put it on the back burner for now. Knowing Avery remains a rather difficult character and that the story is full of tragedy and heartbreak, I'm not sure I'm in a rush to get back into it. I'm a chicken, I need happier reads right now! :-) Lovely review!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6907235505822471522.post-18369993238009073992014-09-17T02:28:43.836-04:002014-09-17T02:28:43.836-04:00I like when books like this are darker.

I need smaller doses of romance or action or just an uplifting genre. I'm glad you found many qualities to enjoy, though, Jenny, and I'll be looking out for early reviews on the sequel to this. It seems to be a series with promise and if that is, in fact, the case then I'll be looking further into this one for sure. :)Keertanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01071392026876644282noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6907235505822471522.post-86237355381214001742014-09-16T18:12:58.183-04:002014-09-16T18:12:58.183-04:00I am quite curious about this one and have been fo...I am quite curious about this one and have been for a while, but after reading your review I'm not sure if it's a book for me to read right now.

I admired our herione if only for the strength she decided to show every once in a while and in helping Tane with everything.
