Seeing your examples, now I'm afraid to read them as I may find out how young and naive I was when I last read this genre.
Too stupid to live is an understatement. LOL I'd like to kill her just on principle.
Hi,
just wanted to say its ok to read other people's opinions about things but read the book first to see if you agree with it being as stupid as she feels it to be because with a few choice words and/ or inferences people can change the whole meaning of the sentence. Best read for yourself to see how you see it. Try to forget what she said than after you finish see if you still agree with her review. All books are not for everyone, like the Imdalind series by Rebecca Ethington. I personally find it disgusting that the author has this teenage girl "falling in love" with a guy who's old enough to be her father a 1000 times over. But other people love it so like I said read for yourself to see if you like it, or whether the character's actions seems really stupid in the context of the book. I haven't read it yet, but I plan to to see for myself how the book is.
People's opinions led me astray with Ms. Ethington's series, not going to let that happen again. No offence intended to the original poster, just have such a bad taste in my mouth from the Imdalind series. If you prove to be right I will come back and most humbly apologize !
