Review: Dump the publisher!!!
Rating: 2 out of 5
Date: 02 16, 2014
I am so frustrated with the last 2 books that Kristen Ashley has published!! Jagged was mediocre at best and Kaleidoscope was just a little bit better. I couldn't wait to read about Deck and learn his story but this book fell way short of my anticipation, it was boring!! I read the authors remarks that this was supposed to be just a simple love story between Emme and Deck but holy cow I don't buy KA books to be bored to death! It pains me to say this but her books are not nearly as good as they once were and if this book was my first from this author I would probably not wast my time buying another. I want the old KA back!! Breathless excitement, suspense, humor, rich description of clothes, homes, scenery, crazy side characters and epic epilogue. Some of those things try and peak thru in this book but somehow they just get watered down. I am going to buy her next book to the new series she is writing but if it is as boring as this one it may be my last KA book purchase. I will go back and reread all her previous books and long for those self published little gems and mourn the lost of the Kristen Ashley who wrote some of the best, funniest, beautiful stories ever. KA dump that publisher and return to the dark side!!!
