I think that kind of storytelling is better for lighter books that don't need as much character or even world development. <br /><br />Thanks for sharing your thoughts!Shellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05825037414785205085noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2875242362336197892.post-30489637030237791752016-04-29T17:37:31.987-05:002016-04-29T17:37:31.987-05:00This book might just be a little too on the outsid...This book might just be a little too on the outside of my comfort zone, to be honest.

I've been on the fence about it myself. It sounds intriguing but I don't like the lack of connection with the characters. This may be a library book for me.Katherine Phttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12126062556416434416noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2875242362336197892.post-10481171614040787672016-04-29T15:13:51.545-05:002016-04-29T15:13:51.545-05:00Oh man I hate when a book starts out awesome and I...Oh man I hate when a book starts out awesome and I think I am going to love it and then it kind of falls off.
