Review: Patchy - deleted from my library

Let me list the reasons:Uses too many schlock cliches - the deformed humanoid alien, destructive hate for humankind, genetic experiments, hybrids, beams of light transporting comatose victims, you name it...Zack and Tia's motivations are believable, and some parts of their careers and romance are written excellently, but Tia's abandonment of the injured Zack, his lack of resentment, the way they reunite without any recriminations - just don't ring true.Why does the clever hybrid doctor work both for and against the aliens? Why heal Zack?There are also many other unexplained inconsistencies.I think the author is trying to compress too epic a story into this and just skips what doesn't really interest her. It makes for a disjointed narrative, the plot gets lost and it's no longer possible to identify with the characters.I'm giving 2 stars rather than just one because it managed to keep me reading till the end, but I'm deleting this and not getting the rest of the series.
