Let's meet the author!

******REVIEW******

So I'll start with everything that I liked okay? Because seriously! There were a lot of awesome moments :)


I have to say... I actually started out enjoying myself sooo very much with the book.


I was intrigued, I was hooked, and even though Isis isn't the kind of favorite main character for me... I LOVED David and what Isis was when she was with him... A compeltely different person.


The premise of the book was awesome. I wanted to know what was going on... what was up with the book tittle... I mean... you KNOW my weaknesses right?Plus... I was scared a good 50% of the time... not knowing what would come next.


Oh, the characters! Actually... there were 2 specific characters that completely saved the day. I LOVE them both... and yeap... I'm talking about the twins... There has never been a most awesome twin-convo than this one. Believe me...


ALSO~swoons~ David is SO romantic...


And last but not least... The FREAKING TITTLE has a play in the story... it was IN the book as it was on it... For me that was worth a million! ^___^ 


Oh!! I almost forgot!! The names!!! I love all the names the author used for her characters...I'll forever remember them!


But what went wrong?


I'm so weird when I read books for review... Out of nowhere I get a more critical eye, I take a million notes and then some more... I use so many sticky notes is ridiculous and I take longer to read the books...
So as was expected... I did all that with this book. 
Here it goes...


Okay, I can live with a few typos, we're not perfect people but I really wouldn't have minded a little more editing on that part :D They're not AWFUL I just couldn't help but notice.


Then, there was the plot. I don't think that I know, even now after finishing it, what was the whole plot of the story? Was it Isis & David's love? Was it the fact of someone being a 'Creatura'? Was it the discovery of David's nature or of Isis for that matter? Or... was it Gabriel?


I was halfway through the book and I still didn't know what the whole plot was :/ or maybe I'm just not smart enough T_T in which case... ~blush~


Then... there were a lot of facts that I couldn't get through with... even in writing fiction they were just TOO unreal for me to actually go along with them... Like,
-Someone's in love with a person she/he doesn't even remember being with in the first place. And believe me when I say THAT came out of completely nowhere T_T I was so sad...- Just to mention one...


But in the last few pages... the story picks up... BIG TIME... I still didn't know WHAT exactly was going to happen... BUT months passed in spans of a few short paragraphs... :'( it was hard to keep up with all the timing at the end. I almost felt rushed :/


**********


All in all, I still say you should see for yourself if the book is to your liking... 
I promise you this though... This is a book like none I've read in my life... and I applaud the author for it and for making me fall in love with twins :D with NO way or possibility to be able to choose between the 2 :D


One last thing...
OH
MY
GOD
What is with the ending?!


I think the ending was completely a killer one... and I might just pick the second book to figure out what exactly was happening with Isis...


I give this book-I debated the rating a lot. I take this really seriously and in the end I remembered that I didn't cry at all while reading the book. And you guys know what that means, right?.-
2fotitos=Will never make me cry.
