Review: Not Quite What I Expected
Rating: 3 out of 5

Although Reality Bites was OK, I found it to be a weaker book than the first three. Perhaps the significantly shorter length (about 100 pages less than "Vexing Voss") did not leave room for the same sort of character development that I previously liked.  I was not  impressed with Bree compared to the previous Jones' girls.  It seemed like on some level she wanted to get "caught" and almost immediately accepted, even embraced, having her life taken away.  She just did not come across as all that strong or independent or even interesting. I found Jaylan to be a pale abbreviated version compared to the other warlords in the series. If there is another in the series, I hope it will be more like the first three than this one.
