![]() My advice: get another book - i still have to gird my loins to go through book 2 and i don't think i can survive the experience! The last straw was when i found myself cringing during certain scenes and actually covering my ears with my hands, so i wouldn't be subjected to the epic cringe-worthiness of said lead character. ![]() It's so obvious a mile away that certain actions would result in obvious events and i guess for me, it's the predictability of those moments in the book that killed the buzz for me. the general storyline is actually quite good, but i get the feeling the characters aren't quite sure whether they're adults or teens!! Maybe it's the actual performance - doubt it very much though - but i just couldn't bear the "whininess" of Violet's character, or the hedonistic teenage rebelliousness. Let me just say i've suffered through the book as best as i can. I very quickly realised i couldn't make head or tail of book 2 without reading (hearing) book 1, so i got "Embrace". Against my better judgement, i got book 2 of the series (the reviews for book 1 were not very encouraging). ![]()
