  • THE ENDING.

    THAT FUCKING ENDING.

    THAT WAS A COMPLETE BULLSHIT ENDING.

  • Jen doesn't like to mix her trashy vampire romance brain candy with feeling real emotions. Hahahahahaha

    But seriously. Who does.

  • WHY WAS SELENA THE ONE FEMALE WHO DIDN'T MAKE IT?!?!? WHY???

    THESE BOOKS ARE SUPPOSED TO HAVE CHEESY ENDINGS WITH UNBELIEVABLE BACK-FROM-THE-DEAD ENDINGS!

  • I think I'm probably the dissenter on this, but I think I really liked that one of them finally didn't make it.  I mean, how many ways can someone miraculously come back?  I was really bummed that it was Selena.  iAm's happiness made up for it a bit.

    Think we'll hear more from s'Ex (the names need to STAHP)?

  • NO.  JUST NO.

    I EXPECT HOT MEN, VAMPIRE SEX, AND HEAs.

    That's ALL I want from BDB. It's a VERY. SIMPLE. FORMULA.

  • If any one had to die it should have been the boring princess.  I mean seriously.....IAm and the princess' virgin sex bored me to tears.  For that reason alone they should have bit it.  Not Selena.

  • I read these books for two reasons...  dirty hot sex and my happily ever afters.  This is why I say these books are brain candy.  They are fun easy reads and I can always predict what is going to happen.  
    Having the love interest die- IS NOT SUPPOSED TO HAPPEN!

    I WANT MY HAPPY EVER AFTER!!

  • I see what you mean about HEAs. I feel like the series jumped the shark a few books ago, so I think I was pleased that she did something a little different. 

    Other notes:

    1) I still stand firm that the Layla/Xcor thing has to stop.  OMG. 
    2) Assail seemed to lose a bit of his appeal in this book. 
    3) I'm actually interested in the Paradise novella. 
    4) I was pleased to see more of Rhage and Mary, but I don't think Rhage's POV worked very well.

    I think it's a spinoff series.

    Even better!  Though I don't like The Fallen Angels that much, so it could go either way.

  • I HATED the Paradise story line.  HATED IT.  

    I still love Assail and need more of him in future books. 

    Emo Rhage is not cool.  Not cool at all.  I want Hollywood Rhage back next book dammit.  

    I just want  a book of all Zadist and Assail.  Swoon.

    I agree- Emo Rhage did nothing for me.  I want the Rhage who's going to rip my clothes off at a wink of an eye (and hopefully bruise me in the process)
    TMI?

  • I feel like the emo vibe is starting to run a little rampant.  Soulful from the MC? Fine.  Emo? Go home.

    I'm excited that I can finally read this post.

    I did not get the Rhage plot at all. I kept waiting for something to happen to him and it just seemed to go nowhere.
