Defied EVERY Rule I Usually Have for Fiction — And I Still Really Liked It
Things I don’t like:
1) Stories about Vampires (What? They’re overdone)
2) Stories with love at first sight (Does this need any explanation?)
3) Stories where the POV shifts around between characters a lot without a clear break between them.
4) Pride, Prejudice and Zombies (couldn’t get into it).
I still loved this story. Probably because I love Forster’s “Room with a View”. Normally, I don’t think these parodies work, however, this parody augments, rather than ignores Forster’s main theme of choosing love over stifling convention. In this story—consciously or not—magic, and people who have magic either innately or through their lovers, is code for people who follow their hearts.
Also, the fight scenes were more gripping!
This story is silly in the best possible way—consciously, and with a good heart behind the silliness.
