Review: Angry. Sara was RAPED people.
Rating: 1 out of 5

I'm still not happy with the lack of sensitivity regarding the situation with Sara's rape -- something that happened in book 1 that's still having repercussions for Sara, but that everyone else in the book seems to think is water under the bridge. Despite other parts of the book (and the series) that are good, this Sara thing has done me in. This will be the last of these books I read.WHAT I LIKED-------------- All the magical creatures were amazing and so much fun.- I got to hate Alma some more, and wow do I like hating her.- Zoey taking responsibility for her Aegis role.- Maurice. Always Maurice.- The ReaperWHAT I DIDN'T LIKE------------------ Sara is clearly suffering repercussions from the incubus "days of raping" in book 1. And yet, when Zoey's monster friends mention it to her, Zoey seems confused and surprised as to why Sara hasn't recovered from that experience yet. That's some serious self-absorption on Zoey's part. I certainly wouldn't want to be her best friend.I've been holding on through this third book hoping the whole sidelining of Sara's horror would somehow be dealt with as the horror it was. I'm giving up, and I just can't keep reading.
