Nick is getting pathetic. You have a gun - use it when someone shoots at you. Such a loser.

The author is taking the Aids thing too far. Making 90% of your characters sick is not something I enjoy reading. It feels overbearing and quite forced.

I'm not feeling this book. The main character is flat and his sister makes me wish she was the murder victim. Sometimes the writing turns flat out juvenile.

A.V. Shener is 70% done with The Life We Bury (Joe Talbert, #1; Detective Max Rupert, #1)
70% in, we're at the part where the main character is doing something so stupid, the only explanation is the need to progress the plot. I hate it when authors turn their own characters into idiots instead of putting extra thought into finding alternative ways to progress the story.

A.V. Shener is 70% done with Gifts Given (Boystown, #10)
For some reason there are a lot more editing errors than on previous books in the series. They are pretty easy to spot.
I'd consider going over the book and re-uploading it to Amazon.

I'm trying to get into this book, but the poor editing keeps getting in the way. It's quite ridiculous.
The author should send this book to a good editor and republish it.

Wow. Both my eyes and my brain are hurting from all this bad writing.
Honest to god, not everyone were meant to write books. So incredibly bad.

A.V. Shener is 16% done with Complementary Colors
I'm getting a little tired of all this thing with the sister.
At one point it's just not gonna be believable at all, and maybe that point was a few pages ago.
I hate this all "I choose to be a victim, but I can't tell you why".

Oh my, there are no real characters in this book.
I mean, there are so many of them, so they all act pretty much the same.
The two main gay characters are embarrassing, seriously.

It's clear that the author is influenced by Steven King, but King knows how to write characters, not just names on paper.

It's shaping up to be a 3.5 stars books, and that's a shame.

I like the book so far, especially the pacing. However, I'm not sold about the writing. Something just feel childish about some sentences. Also, why switching between pov's at the same chapter? It's so annoying. Who does that?

I like it, but too much is going on, and it's hard to keep track.
And it feels very long.

A.V. Shener is 7% done with Black House (The Talisman, #2)
This has got to be the worst beginning of a book, I have ever read. The writing is annoying as f@$%, and there are so many characters that I don't know which one I should pay attantion to. I hope it'll get better soon, cause right not it's crap.

Really didn't like the beginning. Boring as hell and way too much telling instead of showing. I'll see if it improves.

Not good enough.
The author is trying, but it's just not working.
Maybe I'll go back to it in a few days.

Why didn't anyone edited this book? It's way too long. I'm struggling to finish, not sure I can.

Why does it has to be so sticky and overly dramatic? It's a good story but it feels like twilight a lot of the time. Seriously, no body talks the way those characters talk.
