Your DNF doesn't make me want to read it any more than their reviews did. It's just that sisterhood thing that keeps calling to me. And I'm hoping that the second book is a lot better than the first. So I'll read the positive and negative reviews and see if I can find a happy medium. <br /><br /><br />And I would either want to be a mermaid or a dragon, but most people seem to hate dragons. Maybe a mermaid that rides underwater dragons!! I feel some creative writing coming on!!!

Which is unfortunate b/c (along with aliens *snickers*), I've always been fascinated by the ocean and whatever is hiding in its depths. Not happy about this being such a lame read. And if we're going to talk about what kind of fantastical creature we want to be, I want to be BOTH. There's got to be some Supe out there that can breathe underwater for long periods of time while essentially being a creature of earth or air, right? ;)Jessica @ Rabid Readshttp://rabidreads.ca/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6071281654490676742.post-14555979046481261162014-05-07T22:59:15.764-04:002014-05-07T22:59:15.764-04:00Great review Brandi.

I like how you put in there that it would be great for the right person.
