I know this is one of the most looked forward to books of 2012 for a lot of the book blogosphere, but I've been a little hesitant to put it on my to-read list because I was worried about the love triangle. You're making me start to lean the other way though...lol.Natalie https://www.blogger.com/profile/15879112865868418812noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3174565204146611498.post-10968247111766407862012-01-14T08:04:13.060-07:002012-01-14T08:04:13.060-07:00I am not going to lie, I am kinda on the fence abo...I am not going to lie, I am kinda on the fence about how I feel about this book. I have read soooooo many reviews where people who said it is their most favourite book ever, and while it wasn't mine, I still found it enjoyable (and like you said, the end will totally tear at you).Averyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09043710129088565772noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3174565204146611498.post-55562911114724036552012-01-14T04:16:07.167-07:002012-01-14T04:16:07.167-07:00So even though you were disappointed it all worked...So even though you were disappointed it all worked out since it still was a good story, even if not the story you guessed :)Blodeueddhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03435479623560871881noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3174565204146611498.post-78230210444376029472012-01-13T15:55:56.215-07:002012-01-13T15:55:56.215-07:00@Melliane...

Yes, the beginning was hard to get into but once it started really opening up you got in. Oh and Jack... so swoon worthy!!<br /><br />@Missie... I think it is because it really was designed that way and wasn't by accident. It parallelled the character.<br /><br />@Stephanie... I think what sold me was what it was about and how she wove in the mythology to tackle a hard subject without being preachy. Hard to do and rarely done as well.Melissa (Books and Things)https://www.blogger.com/profile/00074452958853212024noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3174565204146611498.post-29040637152605749062012-01-13T13:58:43.411-07:002012-01-13T13:58:43.411-07:00I really wanted to like this book but as you menti...I really wanted to like this book but as you mentioned, the Greek myths it alluded to weren't as prevalent in the story as I thought it could have been.

I wasn't expecting that because of how you said you didn't connect with Nikki right away. And I was expecting a Persephone tale, too. It's good to know that though the story is not quite what you expect, it is still well worth the read.Missie, The Unread Readerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10548256640926555361noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3174565204146611498.post-26015510739447238002012-01-13T09:55:08.807-07:002012-01-13T09:55:08.807-07:00SO glad you loved this one too Melissa!

I just adored this book:) I totally agree with you about the beginning, things are crazy with the Feed and Nikki is most definitely a shell of her former self, but once I got in, this book just wouldn't let me go. And I love Jack. That is all:)<br /><br />Really fantastic review:)Jennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14199685365145765394noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3174565204146611498.post-30212499119266470632012-01-13T08:56:14.054-07:002012-01-13T08:56:14.054-07:00Not too sure about this one, perhaps a read for an...Not too sure about this one, perhaps a read for another stage in my life, thanks for the concise review though, it told me everything I like to know about a book.Felicity Grace Terryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17852843882007267665noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3174565204146611498.post-75334739041926510572012-01-13T07:43:49.183-07:002012-01-13T07:43:49.183-07:00It does sound like a fantastic book.
