But I get it too. It's pretty bad, but it's just so damn entertaining, even when you want to throw the book across the room because of the rampant sexism of Aspen or the way-too-niceness of Maxon.Christinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00370486039531015541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7661776850778781626.post-13228325056238743442012-06-09T00:50:53.078+01:002012-06-09T00:50:53.078+01:00Ellie, i feel exactly the same way about this book...Ellie, i feel exactly the same way about this book!

I didn't know about any of the fuss surrounded *that* review until recently. I know lots of bloggers will avoid but lets face it, the rest of the world won't even know about that side. I'd like to read book 2 if HC let me have a copy next year but I probably wouldn't buy it.Elliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14377404526123600035noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7661776850778781626.post-14763070583866921002012-06-08T03:28:05.714+01:002012-06-08T03:28:05.714+01:00It nearly made me do that too, Blodeuedd!

I didn't download it though because of what the author and her publicist did to Wendy. I was tempted to read it really, but because of your review, I'm not anymore.
