Also, books with stellar world building are so immersive, and really bring readers into the story. Too bad the romance threw it off. I generally don't like when romance takes too much of the focus in a book, and soapbox speeches are the worst. I am afraid I have written many soapbox speeches in my WIP. Oh well. At least I can still edit.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-346215484089416831.post-53716922217428105862015-01-13T20:12:42.643+11:002015-01-13T20:12:42.643+11:00Man, this is the second time today I've seen &...Man, this is the second time today I've seen 'click here for spoilers' and whatnot, and damn, it's tempting.

I didn't get to the romance so I wasn't that annoyed just yet. I'll have to find some time later on in the year for this one. I'm glad you enjoyed it (bar the romance--that killed the first two for me as well). I can only hope that I will as well.
