Hmm, I marked this as read several years ago, but have no recollection of it! Starting again, but already noticing inconsistencies that drive me batty from a visual stand point. 4 inch heels to flat steel toe boots with no mention of a change is one. Let’s see how far I get……

I have to put this one on hold for awhile. Quite frankly it’s boring. Nothing is happening. There is not real plot. I may try again later.

Struggling......

I enjoyed the Belador series that was written with Kenyon, but I’m having a hard time getting into this.

With all the great reviews of these books I thought this would be a shoe in. However, I must be missing something because so far I am not seeing it. The characters and writing are very basic and quite honestly it feels very immature. I will try and keep reading but if it doesn’t improve i will have to shelve it.

Nope, can't finish.

If I don't look forward to reading this book I think I should just stop. Beginning to skim a lot. It's too bad because the author writes very well, the subject matter is just too predictable. It's a cut and dried fantasy at this point and if it doesn't improve I will have to give up.

I hate coming off the high of a really good well written book and then go into something less than spectacular. Granted I am not that far into this one, but so far the writing is very immature. I'll keep going through....

As I mentioned prior, there are three more books I came across, however, I am not enjoying these half as much as the first series. It seems like a totally different author wrote them. I am trying to finish, but it is getting hard. Too repetitive, no substance, I am skimming quite a bit.

Wow. What I thought was one book has turned in to six! After finishing Ryder's story there were two more stories in the Player Card series, and now I find three stories in the Crossed Heart series :)

Oh how I missed this bunch! I was one that was so sad when the other series came to an end. Loving this so far and really glad it's about Jace.

Ugh. This started out so well. But now we get the majorly possessive male and the totally insecure female. Is it just me or has Feehan's style changed? I flew through her Carpathian series in the beginning and this never seemed to be an issue. Now almost every book is this way. I may be done after his one.

I have to set this one aside. I am a huge fan of Anne Rice and the Vampire Chronicles, but this is just dragging and if I'm not enjoying it, I need to stop for now. I may pick it up again later when I am looking for this type of read.

after reading reviews I had such high hopes that my love for the Carpathians would come back. however I am finding myself skipping over pages and pages of fight scenes. Will try and muddle through, but unless things change I may not even finish.

I am trying hard, really, to finish this book. There is just no substance. Already at least 100 pages could have been cut out and not altered the storyline. Between the repetitive sex, Eli's demanding nature and all the internal dialogue it is getting really boring. I need some bad guy action.

I am so in love with this series. I savor every book and don't want them to end. Troy and Ellie are no exception.

finally got back to reading this after sneaking in Born of Fury.

Love being swept up into the League again....
