There were some mentions here that caused me to pause. Why is it that when white people describe people of color, all they've got is color words at their fingertips?
Alice trips and glides. Esme is probably the leash described but we still get the rundown of her features. Jane is angelic. Rose, beautiful.
But every Native in the story? They're dark. So dark. Dark shapes, dark skin, dark faces. It's off-putting. Takes me out of the story because it makes me wonder about the author. Is she ...more

Just started, but really liked the last one. Hope this one lives up
the ending was a cliffhanger. I don't usually like cliffhanger endings, it feels like I'm getting cheated. I think the author has found a way to get more money out of me by forcing me to buy the next book.

In which Edward becomes a real dick. Jacob and Alice almost save the rest, though. Almost.
