yes, I thought it was better than the Mortal Instruments. But I'm giving up on the author for now. I'm tired of Shadowhunters

I have no idea... I only found out about this thanks to a newsletter I receive every day with news of the editorial market
So I think I'm gonna sit out of the challenge next month cause I'm getting LASIK eye surgery on the 1st.. I'm curious if anyone has gotten this procedure done before and how it affects your reading? My contact prescription is -3.25 which means I use them to see far away.. I'm excited to have 20/20 vision but I'm scared it will affect my ability and comfort of reading from a device with a back light.Any input?
Why can't people respect that other people have different opinions? Ugh!Just had someone having a right go on my review!

I saw that, it was quite rude! Some people can't deal with different opinions...

*sigh* Diversity is a beautiful thing. People need to learn that!

Bitching and putting words into people's mouths is his/her's specialities!
Thanks for the support. :)

I actually just looked at her review, and at the end it says about people like me who 'judge' the character.. and that to be a good reader, you've got to understand her character! Such a cheek!

If only people would understand what 'opinion' means!

That's insane! I looked at it too and it was edited recently just to point out how anyone judges it by the protagonist is wrong. I can't believe. I cannot...And she also made a comment on Sarah's review :O You can't convince everyone to see it the way you did.
Bloody hell, they're all coming out tonight! Just got someone else asking me how I didn't think a book was great on another review!

OMG this person is getting on my last nerve!
I'm just about to. Really annoying when they see they can't get another response from you on your review so go onto a friend's review instead though!
I actually unfriend people who say spoilers in their reviews without warnings, haha. How much more if it's arguing with you. (In this case, block)
I haven't read the book, but it's just weird that the character would stick to ballet, which is something that requires a lot of time and dedication, not to mention discipline, while at the same time, self-destructing by smoking and drinking... I would find fault with that as well!
Just before I blocked, the person decided to comment on Sarah's and my friendship. This bit actually made me laugh!'I suppose it makes sense that people who judge books by subjective standards would be friends.'
Of course, we're only friends because we hate the same books... -insert eyerolling gif here-
I'm probably spamming your review Abbie but seriously this person has real issues and someone should warn her xD

@Hanna - Oh! Now that's something! Best of luck! :D@Kathryn - That sounds cool! :D I used to dye my hair all the time back in the days. I really miss it sometime :/

I just feel like skipping until the end -.- what happened to Veronica Roth? Divergent was such a great book! Insurgent was a disappointment, but I always thought it was middle book syndrome, now I just feel like the whole series has lost its magic...*sigh*
