Please don't judge me on my writing people. I can't explain how much I love Mimi Jean's writing style. With some authors you can tell...it's repetitive, forced, lacking in X, Y, and Z ways, editing is atrocious...dialogue and story line are CLICHE and not natural. With Mimi... you have none of those issues. Everything flows like a river man. Twisty and turny and you don't know whats going to happen next.. Pocahontas style, unless you are Louis or Clarke. I would have also metaphorically described her River Writing as smooth but then I would have no explanation for the rapids and whatnot. (What would you have me say? Frothy, wild, and dangerous? Sounds like a rabid raccoon..shoot it) Anyways...back to the review...This novella answers a lot of questions. Ones I didn't know I even had. I was extremely pleasantly surprised. I read a lot of books. A TON. I'm not going to lie.. when a main character is female I just lose interest. But with Cimil...the way she is portrayed endears you to her crazy Cimibum. I couldn't wait for Cimil's story!! I'll keep this review short and try to leave the crazy out..I'll lay this out in some easy to follow numbed points.1. All of Mimi's books are pleasant reads. You laugh, they aren't overly priced...and you want MORE. This is an important numbered bullet point thing. You know with the economy and all, honest pricing and good times are harder and harder to find. Mimi creates a little world you can escape to and not break the bank.2. Great characters. I EVEN LOVE THE BAD GUYS! Bad guys as in the Gods. (obvi)3. You can identify in a weird way4. UNICORNS!5. Why are you still reading my review it's bloody horrible.6. Mimi is probably the coolest author I know of. She's involved. She invests in her followers. And that's a connection that makes the books that much better. There's almost a personal connection so its easier to respect her work. I know this sounds weird... but just let it marinate babe. She does this for us. And I'm so grateful, I truly hope she inspires other individuals to pick up writing. Because it sure as hel-eck..I mean sure as heck... is workin' for her.7. I've met some wonderful people because of Mimi. I have my little hands in a bunch of authors street teams, groups..whatever. I can honestly say I haven't connected with well..any from the other groups. We're a sisterhood. Get on it strangers! The best street team ever. In all seriousness. (Thanks Jessa M!)8. The books are pretty unique. At least I believe them to be. What initially drew me in was the Mayan aspect. How many books have a Mayan aspect? How cool is that?9. Andrus needs to get in my pants...or on my body. I would totally be on him like a lion on a broke leg zebra. Mysterious right? If you are a Mimivirgin you're all like, "This Andrus character sounds pretty hot. WHAT A NAME! And this chick is seriously into him." Yeah maybe you should read the series to find out on your own the why behind this. Hmmm?10. I think I've abused the numbered bullet things. This is why I Leaf the writing to the pros. Aka Mimi. (you all see what I did there right? ....my last name?)Unbeleafable. You made it to the end of the review. Thank god right?Side note: I realize I didn't finish number 3. Awkward.
