Emma and I!
Please join us!

[Emma]

This looks really interesting.

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

yes! I agree. and it's really sort so I'm interested to see what we think of it!

[Vicki]

I'm in!

[Emma]

Cool. looking forward to this one :) Welcome Vicki.

[Vicki]

Thanks, Emma. :)

[Emma]

looking forward to starting this tomorrow :) looks like nice quick read so shouldn't take us long to get through :)

[Vicki]

Let's hope so! :o)

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

Yay! I'm excited too!

I say we just update as we go along whenever we want. this one is so short :)

[Vicki]

Sounds good to me.

[Emma]

ye sounds good, I already started, will post after another few chapters. :)

[Emma]

Chapter 5 (view spoiler)[ so they are obviously twins, and Bri must have been adopted, why only give up one? And why are they both feeling ill all of sudden? Is there going to be a supernatural element to this? (hide spoiler)]

[Emma]

chapter 10 (view spoiler)[ about half way through, there's more questions than answers. Maybe Abby and Cara were friends and one couldn't get pregnant so she gave her one of her twins. It does seem ashame that they were kept apart. What do Kael and Chloe have to do wiht all of this? And who was wanting Sloane to find out? (hide spoiler)]

[Emma]

chapter 15 (view spoiler)[ Okay what the heck is going on? How does Kaels dad know who she is? Where is Abby? I want all the answers now!! It may be a short book but there's a lot going on. I don't trust Jake, not sure why (hide spoiler)]

[Emma]

chapter 20 (view spoiler)[ wow that esculated fast. Where did the squid creature come from? I thought Chloe and Kael were on the same side not opposite. Still no answers, only 5 chapters to go though, so they should be soon. (hide spoiler)]

[Emma]

End (view spoiler)[ I was enjoying the book until the supernatural bit came into play,it was rushed and flimsy and just not very good in my opinion. I think it would have been better if they were twins separated at birth and something evil was going on. (hide spoiler)]

Looking forward to seeing what you both think.

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

so so sorry, I got behind yesterday

I plan to read this today after I start a few others
I'll be back soon....Yikes, just 2 stars Emma :/

[Emma]

It's cool, take your time, ye I may have been a little harsh but the ending ruined it for me.

hmmm...

Letter(view spoiler)[ I wonder who sent it? maybe the sick uncle guy? Or Kael? someone with money and someone who wanted to spill a secret (hide spoiler)]

so...(view spoiler)[ does this mean her mom didn't really die in a car wreck? or does this mean Abby adopted Bri? Who's the real mom?
and who's the real dad? (hide spoiler)]

Jake(view spoiler)[ lol I'm so glad it's not insta love! I was like "no, no way" lol (hide spoiler)]

so far it's interesting....but I keep seeing your 2 stars and I worry lol

[Emma]

Sorry, it was the ending that did it for me, made me want to throw the book in the fire, but the rest was great. I've seen some great reviews, so you might get lucky and love it.

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

10 chapters and I agree
we don't know anything new after 5 more chapters....

15 chapter and I'm definitely...getting bored
(view spoiler)[ I don't like Jake's struggle as to who to like. I mean, he doesn't even KNOW Sloane. Plus, she's completely opposite from Bri (hide spoiler)]

ha. funny you didn't trust Jake(view spoiler)[ I'm leery of Tucker (hide spoiler)]

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

20 chapters

and what was all that?

Tucker(view spoiler)[ am I right? is he bad (hide spoiler)]
Jake(view spoiler)[ followed Chloe. why? (hide spoiler)]
thing(view spoiler)[ in the water. what on earth?? :/ (hide spoiler)]

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

I'm done
the explanation and story was just silly. I couldn't take this book seriously

[Emma]

ye I am glad you agree with, it was good up until the end, then that happened and it didn't make sense. The synopsis made it seem like a physcologicial thriller not, whatever that was lol.

[Vicki]

I'm inclined to skip this one then...guess there are SOME perks to being behind. LOL

[Emma]

I really don't blame you Vicki, not really worth it in my opinion.

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

I was good until Jake said he couldn't stop thinking about her..

but I was thoroughly done with Abbey got back. That was just so ridiculous.

Yikes, we've had some tough ones lately, Emma! LOL
hopefully our next one is better!

Yeah, skip it Vicki!! :)

[Emma]

Ye let's hope so, I am half way through Rebel of the Sands and it's good so far, let's hope the end is much better than this one :)

the main thing that annoyed me was there was no clue or warning that it was going to happen, all normal then bam , crazyness that made no sense.

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

yay! Rebel of the Sands is better?
I'm getting ready to start that one too!! I'll be to that thread soon :D
