She really did. Their theory of where her power originates and what causes her skin to harm others is interesting.

It was good to see Juliette embracing her gift instead of seeing it strictly as a curse.

Yes. Yes it was. I mean her whole life she was told her gift was evil and like you said, a curse. She needed to realize that it's not

Exactly! Yes, I completely forgot about that! (view spoiler)

I remember what had irked me about these books before...[spoilers removed]"
I'm at the part where she tells Adam what she did to his father. I do feel sorry for both Adam and Warner. I'm glad she is starting to accept her powers.

Yes, how terrible is it to have the same cruel dad.

It was sooo weird going from hating Warner to liking him. I am not used to liking him.

Yes, it was very uncomfortable liking him or feeling sorry for him. It did make more sense that both Warner and Adam could touch Juliette since they were brothers.

Yeah, that does make sense. Kind of like the twins. Makes me wonder if James has any gifts.

Oh yeah. I feel stupid. I should have remembered that.
In a way his are similar to Warner and Adam.

Sometimes we forget things that happen in a book. I like James. I want to read more about him.

Right. I am starting to like him but I'm not sure that's a good thing.
Vaughn wrote: "I'm done. Been crazy here in Carolina.
This book was crazy too. like do I now like Warner?"
So true! Did you think that would happen? When do you ladies want to start the next one?

I'm ready when you're ready. I'm anxious to read this next one.
I'm not sure I still like Warner, lol. Understand him a little better...Maybe. At least Juliette is not sitting around whining anymore...She's ready for action!
Vaughn wrote: "And Adam is so whiney"
So true. It's making it easier to like Warner. Again, good thing or bad thing?

I'm good for tomorrow. I'll get from the library today. I know they have it.
I'm still having difficulty with the sympathy that I have for Warner. I am really growing to like him which seems wrong.

I feel sorry about his mom
Yes, I feel sorry for Warner's mom. I thought Juliette had it bad but she definitely had it bad. Anderson definitely didn't help. He despises weakness in any form. Anderson could have found some help for her instead he got her hooked on pain meds. Yes, he is evil.
