Readingrrl Posted June 5, 2013 Report Share Posted June 5, 2013 Hi Sheens263, Great photo! Enjoy your new phone case! That's great. Did you make a special request to get both FSOG and Crossfire? The site only shows one or the other. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrsCrossfire Posted June 5, 2013 Report Share Posted June 5, 2013 I wonder what made them feel like that. Maybe they are one of the people who had it in their head that this would be the last book, so their expectations were different. Quite frankly I this one is the best one and NOT because of the obvious..!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was going to tweet him but then I realized everyone is entitled to be a hater every now and then..! :-/ Hi MrsCrossfire, I don't think that person is a hater. I just think that he or she is frustrated and quite frankly they are more than entitled to be annoyed. Now I think that many people don't realize that they have far more power than they think. That person could have picked up the phone or written a letter to the publishers to let them know how frustrating or upsetting it was to have to deal with constant delays. They also could have expressed that their buying power would no longer be spent supporting Penguin Publishers, etc.  At the end of the day, everyone is entitled to their own opinion (good or bad), but maybe it is better to just ignore the not so nice reviews or better yet, just toss them into the discard pile....right along with all those reviews from people who never bothered to finish the book before they made comments. Do you know what I mean? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sharonm745 Posted June 6, 2013 Report Share Posted June 6, 2013 I read Entwined twice, and counting the audiobook, I'll have gone through the story three times before Friday when we all starts going wild with reactions.  The first read-through was a fast-paced page turner, excited by every plot twist (even the ones involving me wanting to smack certain characters off the side of the head -- I loved the story despite the fact parts of it angered me. Maybe I loved it even more because parts of the story, specifically the actions of certain characters, were upsetting. An excellent story is supposed to move me in a number of different ways, and for every "AGH!!!!" there also were laughs and mental high-fives.)  The second read-through was to go back over the story in fine detail, connecting dots within the plot of Entwined and connecting threads tracing all the way back to Bared.  As always, the audiobook is a special pleasure unto itself, and is something that allows me to pick up on stuff that jumps out a little when reading but leaps out when being read to.  SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE   I read the book twice and listened to the audio at work. I want to talk so instead I made lots of notes, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sheens263 Posted June 6, 2013 Report Share Posted June 6, 2013 She was having trouble with her computer. Hope she gets it sorted by Friday. Or she could have made a date with her Italian Gideon! Hoping for the latter also Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sheens263 Posted June 6, 2013 Report Share Posted June 6, 2013 I think they thought it would all be wrapped up, they forget the book only covers 2 weeks. To cram it all in would do it a disservice. Is not just about Eva and Gideon. I loved it. Reading it for a third time. I agree Julie. Â I am listening to Audio still then going to start book again hopefully tonight ready for tomorrow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
