Sarah's Library

20/6 - There were many, many problems with this but I just loved it. The editing gets 1.5 stars (mistakes of all kinds everywhere - missing words, missing letters, incorrect words, typos, incorrect tenses, etc.), the general writing gets 2 stars (lots of repetition of words/phrases), the dialogue gets 2 stars (some pretty stilted conversations made worse by awkward phrasing, the plot gets 3 stars (so predictable), the characters get 5 stars (oh Ash! *swoon*). All that adds up to '4 I loved it, but I can't overlook all the faults' stars. Damn, I wish I could edit out the errors as I read and have it translate to all the other copies because the plot and characters deserve better treatment than they got.

I loved Asher! His chapters/scenes were my favourite, especially when he was sneaking into Nat's apartment. Lots of sex from both PoV with possibly an excessive amount of swearing, especially the F word (I don't think anyone used the phrase 'have sex' once in the whole book).

This, and the first book in the series, are books I would read over and over (I finished this two days ago and I already want to read it all over again) and really enjoy but I just can't buy a book that needs so much more editing, so if I ever do buy it, it won't be till it's been gone over by someone with a better eye for detail than whoever did it this time. I can't wait to get my hands on Sugar Rush the next book in the series (am I living in a dreamland for hoping it will be better edited?).
