AUTHOR: James, Elliott
GENRE: Fantasy/Supernatural
DATES READ: 3/30/2014 - 4/22/2014
MY RATING: 2/5
I received this book from my sister-in-law for my birthday in 2013. I can't believe I haven't picked it up until now. Love the cover!! I opened it and immediately got sucked into the story.
I'm not going to lie... there are quite a few cheesy/campy moments in this book. Not an all-out cheese fest, but dangerously close. I liked it overall, but when a book gets too "jokey", for lack of a better work, it's just not my style.
Sig was okay, but none of the characters seemed realistic at all. I can appreciate this style of book, but it's not really my thing. I would recommend this toward people who enjoy more sarcastic supernatural bits of fiction. It's definitely for lovers of action, who enjoy the type of charm reserved for Ferris Bueller types who talk directly to the camera (reader). A fun easy breezy read, just not my cup of tea.
Will read and write soon!
