April over at Good Books and Good Wine is hosting a 15 day Book Blogger Challenge, which you can read all about here. It seems like a great idea, and I’m loving the idea of putting something random and exciting into my blog at a time when my real life makes me want to sleep rather than blog!
April’s 15 day book blogger challenge
Today we’re talking about the last book we threw across the room. I don’t think I’ve ever actually thrown a book, but here the last two I wanted to!
Icons
You can read my full review here but basically I had high hopes for Icons and ended up being thoroughly disappointed. I found it slow and vague, and didn’t connect to any of the characters.
Silken Bonds
I haven’t reviewed this, because I don’t honestly know where to start. I didn’t particularly enjoy the writing style, I hated the main character and it was, quite frankly, weird (and I don’t mean kinky). I think the characters were intended to come across as uninhibited, sexually liberated, etc, but they came off as downright (I really can’t think of a better word for it) skanky. And also creepy.
What a pity regarding Icons, I thought that it being written by Margaret Stohl it’d be good but there has been plenty of negative reviews about Icon, so your certainly not the only one 😀
