It really is good! I just finished re-reading to prepare for the sequel, out on May 6. And how about Vampire Academy? I haven't read it, but the teenage girls love the series!

Easy read, easy read...hmmmm....You know, I could use an easy read myself, I've been bogged down with heavy texts from school. Although I have made a return to The Walking Dead comic -certainly an easy read. But I can't remember if you happen to have a fondness for zombies or not. And, being that the series is still going on...it's always dropping you another cliffhanger, and you have to wait for the next issue to come out. Freak. If anything comes to mind I'll be sure to drop you a line. So sorry to hear the hives have made a vicious return.

I shouldn't admit that should I? It was when I was young and foolish and had a high tolerance for sappy fantasy. Um, I probably wouldn't say for you to give it a second chance. I liked it but right now I don't need something to be good in order to like it - I just need it to be a very easy read. Of course, I don't recommend it to you (especially if you didn't like the first chapter) but I'm totally getting "Ink Exchange" when it comes out later in the year. I HAD A MERCEDES LACKEY PHASE TOO!

It just seemed to wallow in all of the tropes of the urban elf genre, and I started having flashbacks to my best-forgotten Mercedes-Lackey phase. So, was my first impression wrong? Should I reconsider and give it a second chance?
