For example, I did feel like there was a lack of reasons, but I really don't think it's necessary? I liked being able to read the book and try and figure out why it all happened.... Nevertheless, great reviews and it was great to hear your thoughts!Tyler-Rose Neathhttp://the-reading-pile.blogspot.co.uk/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1751729015533379496.post-75068137302810974802012-03-22T21:25:52.989+00:002012-03-22T21:25:52.989+00:00I have been thinking about reading this one for a ...I have been thinking about reading this one for a while, but I really dislike when a story lack world building.

I'm glad to hear you still enjoyed it a little despite the issues you mention here. I don't like the idea that the lead male character is lacking of swoon (I need that with my lead male character).

I should be reading this in two books time and I'll be sure not to set my expectations <i>too</i> high. :) I do like the sound of this but it's a shame you thought the world-building was lacking.Sam (Realm of Fiction)https://www.blogger.com/profile/04440380021875536125noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1751729015533379496.post-53831922331031735172012-03-20T14:43:58.067+00:002012-03-20T14:43:58.067+00:00It's not the first time that I've heard th...It's not the first time that I've heard this criticism about the world-building and characters, so I'm really starting to want to read it less and less.
