I did enjoy Virtue, but like other reviewers, I did not like this one as much as other books I've read by Hocking (Trylle Trilogy and The Hollows).  I suppose this is mostly because it's a significantly shorter story than some of her others and thus feels more rushed. I also just felt the writing style was not as polished as other things I've read by her. I'm not talking typos or proofreading errors - I mean the style itself, how the sentences go together, how the story flows, etc.ANYWAY, all that said, I still enjoyed the cute story of Lux and Lily. Relatively predictable? Sure. Romantic and sweet with some suspense? Definitely. If you read everything I've written here and still want to check it out (and I do recommend it if you like Hocking's books in general), then I'm sure you'll enjoy it!
