The pacing was equivalent to the shaky camera move in movies where they try to make it seem like a lot of action is taking place, but it's really just confusing...Ayleehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07639250102446794830noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4619019089060464771.post-71495871810302840372012-09-17T10:54:27.525-06:002012-09-17T10:54:27.525-06:00Yup, it really was great!Yup, it really was great!Ayleehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07639250102446794830noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4619019089060464771.post-76738984664169047932012-09-17T10:53:59.994-06:002012-09-17T10:53:59.994-06:00Yeah, it's definitely good for if you're l...Yeah, it's definitely good for if you're looking for something with some humour.

She wrote almost exclusively Harry/Draco slash fanfiction. She has since had to remove all of her stuff when she got published.

I've never read a Brennan book so I wasn't expecting it to be so witty. But, things also never seem serious and Kami sometimes just does random stuff.

It sounds good to me, one that might be better to wait for until the digital library picks it up or the price drops on amazon.
