Sam I AMNreader Ok yes, this review is excellent and I'm sufficiently scared of the book and also had nearly forgotten about Armie Hammer so *no thank you* for that

Lol that's the only cannibalism reference I can think of outside of horror movies I guess

Sarah Mac A GR friend recently read a dinosaur erotica where the “hero” (who was a dinosaur) ate the heroine’s arm. 😳 But the dino book wasn’t even supposed to be sexy, just silly satire. That THIS includes cannibalism as supposedly legit hotness is greatly disturbing. Wtf is wrong with writers these days? The quest for ever more ridiculous levels of Dark Dark Daaaark has resulted in…books like this. No thx. 🙄

I agree. Sometimes you can tell they're trying so hard to make the hero in particular dark. If I get that feeling then I'm not going to enjoy it, it's going to seem cheesy. Like, don't have him go on for paragraphs about how dark and bad he is, just have him do something bad for god's sake.

Kristina I love it when my Dino reads cross the review space continuum. He was a prehistoric bad boy. Roar.

Clarice Great review. Ya the cannibalism in general is a big no for me.

So how did she survive her arm being chewed off?

Yeah... his werewolf saliva made it heal quickly but OW

I forget… something along the lines of magical spit.


Heather ~*dread mushrooms*~ Ah yes, always the magical spit!

Sarah Mac ITA. Too many authors waste words on the hero babbling about how awful/dark/terrible he is, just like they waste words on the heroine babbling how she’s misunderstood/misfit/not like other girls. Zzzz.

Sarah Mac @Kristina - Was he a raptor or an allosaur? I forget.


message 13: by Kristina (new)

Kristina A honky-tonk Allosaurus bad boy.

TheReaderVert The detour storyline between Wright+ Devil/Dead Wife/Sadie is just cumbersome. If the plot was a bit more staid or linear, I think it would be a potent mix of erotic and sinister. Instead it feels like another tangent, hazey, murky piece.

I agree!

Missie Who do you think you are, Armie Hammer?
LOL! Omg, this exactly! I'm about to DNF too, for these very reasons.

Yeah every time I read erotic horror I mentally prepare myself for the inevitable cannibalism
