I love feisty and fierce heroines and generally don't mind their initial unlikability in books, as long as there's a reason behind it. I am very interested to see exactly what this stream-of-consciousness/experimental writing style looks like. I haven't read the Chaos Walking trilogy either, although I plan to eventually.Amandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03052456915027241479noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4619019089060464771.post-67460282548144514212012-10-25T10:46:44.716-06:002012-10-25T10:46:44.716-06:00Ahhhhhhhh, yes!!

It was so consuming, I loved the writing style, and the romance was the best kind. I have major issues with Rebel Heart but, uh, I'll save that for another day.
