I am not always sure what to classify things as. So you must not be an Ilona Andrews fan Vicci? I love their writing.
What was the book you and I hated that everyone else seems to LOVE?! I can't remember but we both trashed it and were definitely the unpopluars on the reviews.....
I haven't read any of hers so I'm not sure, but I will certainly try them.I don't think light pnr is actually a genre I think Kristin just called it that as there is more R than PN haha.
Not sure what the book was.......oh hang on a mo was it The bone season ?

I'll need to track down that movie for sure bc I still can't picture it. I guess seeing will be believing. Unless it's some hokey unbelievable movie scene... Just sayin... Haha!
Am I missing a movie reference for later on in the book?
Hmm... I will tell you once I get over the hurt in my heart over the unjust accusations that The Bone Season has received in this thread...UNJUST I TELL YOU! UNJUST!!!!
Haha I just laughed really loud and got a funny look from my hubby lol
HeeHee!Actually, when I was reading the second book in the series, I was about ready to chuck the whole thing but then it finally picked up and ended up loving it. But, I guess my point was, I was close to not finishing it and I thought of you & Stacey and your thoughts on The Bone Season!
It was just sooo slowwww and the narrator sounded like she was reading a car manual or something !
V Audio Nerd wrote: "It was just sooo slowwww and the narrator sounded like she was reading a car manual or something !"Yes! Sorry Kristin- you should(n't) read our old thread of the Bone Season. We were bitching the whole way through!! Get on with it already!!!
Many people did love it though....

Why is Bonnie so sad? I get that her sister died, but doesn't she have cancer or something? What's up with the cutting of her hair?
I'm only part way through Ezi, these guys are super readers and have finished already !!
@V - Pot meet kettle? How many EIT did you say you read in a day?Ezi - after you get a little further she'll give more of her back story.
Mod
and I am ready for some real substance
I haven't read any of the Marked Men series but have the first one on my TBR. Loooooove Amy Harmon's writing.. Beautiful escape.
Haha yeaaahhhh but they were real books lol
doesn't count !
Definitely counts (times 2)! Ha!
urghhh this woman's writing is sooo beautiful ......

It's okay but I hate when heroines or heroes this savior complex where everything happened because of ME. Give it a rest. It seems so self-centered and disingenuous sometimes.
okay how do you make out on a rollercoaster ??
Mod
you could bite someone's tongue off from the jerking motion of the Texas Giant. that's some sloppy kissing
So you see where I had some concern?! This is where the movie came in...
V Audio Nerd wrote: "I'm loving this story but I don't understand why [spoilers removed]"Exactly- I was thinking that the whole time and really couldn't just let it go, which is probably why I did not love this book. Especially since I am not an insta-love fan. I agree people 'click' right away and feel that draw deep (deep;)) down inside but these two argued-she drove him crazy. They were both broody and then would gush these beautifully put together monologs -even Finn was unbelievably connected to emotions and feelings and expressed them a lot to a total stranger.

As for Bonnie, while she was named after her grandmothers, there is a country singer named Bonnie Raitt (not Ray) so she can count herself amount the siblings with country singer names

I liked the whole Infinity thing too, but what a name to grow up with! Finn is a great name.. I kept reading Bonnie Rait too! The whole time!
'Baby Rae' made me cringe...

RIght! Not the healthiest bunch;)

Parents: (view spoiler)
Brothers: (view spoiler)
sounds like a typical hollywood family
Just finished !Really liked this one but still can't work out why she didn't just call someone and explain, she's an adult so she can do what she wants!
I suppose the witch that was Gran controlled her life so much that she had to have her permission to do anything, so running away was like a big F you to her as she couldn't control her.......

Haha yeah I thought that Ezi , also when they keep explaining how beautiful Bonnie's voice is and then the narrator sings, I'm like .....really? lol
Mod
She is trying to get Finn (view spoiler)

In this age of trigger happy cops, this is an "adventure" that will result in someone getting seriously hurt or dead and chances are it won't be the rich young white girl.

The grandmother is lying about the ransom, does she think Finn is trying to get Bonnie's money?
Yeah her gran is something huh? What a witch!
Mod
Why is the grandma wanting to reap the benefits when she isn't the one singing, writing or playing instruments? Why does she have this entitlement thing?
Bonnie's parents SUCK for not checking grandma.
THe Ransom: (view spoiler)
erghh I know, it's like she feels entitled to it for some reason.Seems like she's living her life through Bonnie and then reaping the benefits !!
Ha you just said that !!!
