You might be better off with her horror books from what I can tell. I don't know that romance is really your style. <br /><br />I'm sure your not the only one who doesn't go for pop culture references. I'm just a total whore for them, or at least ones I'm familiar with.Christinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00370486039531015541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-555254327067745492.post-61906364819592161762013-02-01T13:41:14.863-05:002013-02-01T13:41:14.863-05:00Oh yay, glad you liked this!

I’m still pretty tentative with trying indie pubs because I have bad luck, but Halle is definitely a well-respected author in my corner of the blogging world. Though I must say that pop culture references are one of my pet peeves (yes I’m weird)—really get my goat no matter how relevant they are. We shall see, I suppose!Renae @ Respiring Thoughtshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01269581772628307546noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-555254327067745492.post-73186191585698831642013-01-30T09:00:08.626-05:002013-01-30T09:00:08.626-05:00She is pretty prolific, but I've heard good th...She is pretty prolific, but I've heard good things about all of them. *shrugs*<br /><br />I should be reading books I own too. <br /><br />Sounds like you really should read this. :)Christinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00370486039531015541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-555254327067745492.post-39210307970967210402013-01-29T19:10:02.003-05:002013-01-29T19:10:02.003-05:00I actually own TWO of Halle's books (jeez, is ...I actually own TWO of Halle's books (jeez, is that woman prolific?

Anyway... <br /><br />I DO like music themes and tatted up book boys, and lately I have been reading more adult fiction (still love my YA but it's nice to read "grown up" books too) so I'm checking this one out soon.

I want a steak all the damn time now and I don't even eat it.<br /><br />I really liked how Ellie wasn't your typical female character and that their romance had so many twists to it. I'm really curious to see where this one will go in the next one!

Your review was really detailed and thought-out, and it certainly is encouraging to a reader who is straddling the fence on this one.<br /><br />I understand exactly what you mean about ::shudders:: needles... I have a few tattoos in mind if I'm ever brave enough, and I can imagine that this book might send me over the edge. Haha. <br /><br />Think I'll bump this up in my R&R pile!

I know this book like the back of my hand so it's wonderful to see it from another perspective. :D<br /><br />I love all the music references too.

She's good at heart, but so used to being a kind of terrible person that she can't follow her heart.

Bahaha.<br /><br />I've heard that, and I have the first one on my Kindle (well, now my mom's kindle). Maybe I'll learn how to do that sometime.

I loved how she showed the flashbacks as a disconnection from herself I really thought it fit perfectly. And Camden makes some mean steaks! >.<<br /><br />Her EiT is good too I only read the first one but EVERYONE who has read the whole series say it gets pretty epic! So I can't wait to finish it when I find time, too. I wish instead of sleeping, we could read and it would have the same effect!Gisellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16953187386418088952noreply@blogger.com
