Review: Unlikeable Heroine
Rating: 2 out of 5

First off, let me say that Lavender Parker's writing is superb! Her characters are fleshed out beautifully, errors were almost non-existent... and this was a first work??!! She is definitely a force.Unfortunately, I can't say I liked the characters even half as much. Hated the heroine! I've got a potty-mouth too but if I was talking to a significant other like that (or him to me) and he kept coming back for more, I would think he has serious insecurity issues. She borders on verbal abuse of hero. She was an all out b**ch (and he calls her that in the book!) With all the vitriol, animosity and just downright rudeness from the heroine, the book felt way too long. I could only take so much of her tantrum-like meanness. She was not someone I would EVER root for.I liked her sister WAY more and wished I was reading about her. I'm afraid to buy the sister's novel because of how much I hated this one but based on the preview I THINK I'll take the chance.
