I really liked DIE FOR ME and the world Amy Plum created. WINGS was another book I liked.

I also enjoyed I Am Number Four :( But I haven't read Wings yet even though I own the first 3 books and even an ebook of it.

And faeries ARE my thing...usually...so that made the disappointment that much worse for me.<br /><br />Here are my <a href="http://wordspelunking.blogspot.com/2011/09/book-blogger-hop-4-tgif-4-feature.html?showComment=1316206683108#c3777631732581558286" rel="nofollow">Friday Memes</a>Aeicha @ Word Spelunkinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11232639399524314718noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-856929542485519676.post-83353121770647553742011-09-16T13:04:04.211-04:002011-09-16T13:04:04.211-04:00I couldn't get into Die For Me or Wings either...I couldn't get into Die For Me or Wings either... and I love faery books!

I'll totally agree with you that the writing is bad. The dialogue is simply gag-me-with-a-spoon! But then there's all that action...and the plot. Why oh why do I enjoy the series?! lol, honestly I have the hardest time reviewing it because everything I say makes it sound like I hated it...and yet I am biting at the bit for the third!<br /><br />P.S. So funny that I actually was inspired by you for my Power of Six review...look for a link-back on the post ;)<br /><br />P.P.S. Insanely jealous of your 53 degree, pumpkin loving.

I said there that the reason I was turned off with this book was because I saw the movie first and I thought he movie was just so bad.

My favorite character wasn't the main ones, it was Jules, Vincents best friend.He kept the book interesting to me, he was funny.

I read it before I knew that it was really written by him. I couldn't finish A Million Little Pieces...and I tried several times. I liked Die For Me and Wings, but the others I haven't read. Though I do like the PLL show. :)<br /><br />Happy <a href="http://starryeyedrevue.blogspot.com/2011/09/tgif-9.html" rel="nofollow">TGIF</a>!!!starryeyedjenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15841350560201331032noreply@blogger.com
