Teenagers, man. It does get more interesting but not by much, and the focus on the romance never fades, so I think you and Amber would probably end up setting the book on fire XDAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14609573050968690556noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5734740821043177646.post-80462464876382265402013-04-14T19:14:20.536+01:002013-04-14T19:14:20.536+01:00I will be watching the movie purely so I can make ...I will be watching the movie purely so I can make fun of it XD Thank you for commenting and reading!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14609573050968690556noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5734740821043177646.post-49129198884069681252013-04-14T19:13:14.150+01:002013-04-14T19:13:14.150+01:00She gets worse? :/ Does she write more mediocre po...She gets worse? :/ Does she write more mediocre poetry because that.was.hilarious. Ooh, I liked the magic and history stuff too, I'm pretty sure that's what kept me reading until the end because the romance really didn't do it for me at all.

I read a couple of reviews that said the same thing about Ethan not reading like a guy, and I think is kinda true. Not that I can really make a solid opinion since I basically tuned him out XD Thank you for commenting :DAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14609573050968690556noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5734740821043177646.post-34473948654248875432013-04-14T18:53:38.558+01:002013-04-14T18:53:38.558+01:00Haha, Riley was my fave character!

This review had me giggling. Yeah, I decided a while back it wouldn't be wise for me to read this series and I don't think I could sit through the whole thing either. I've just read too many frustrating things about it. But this review is brilliant :)Debbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07067361314969302669noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5734740821043177646.post-17401825379087457942013-04-12T03:53:53.516+01:002013-04-12T03:53:53.516+01:00I have to agree.. not my favorite series.

The second part actually sounds quite interesting, but I won't pick this one up again FOR SURE. I'll read a summary somewhere.Judithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10169574717441851611noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5734740821043177646.post-71331025797127448632013-04-11T17:05:06.485+01:002013-04-11T17:05:06.485+01:00I enjoyed the books enough to read the whole serie...I enjoyed the books enough to read the whole series, but I definitely agree with you! For a while I couldn't figure out what I didn't like about Beautiful Creatures, because I did enjoy the magical aspect of it and Lena's family history, but Lena is annoying (she gets worse in the 2nd book) and I wasn't impressed with Ethan's POV.

It sounds like it has a good potential, but it is ruined by the annoying characters. I definitely don't like the sound of Lena and Ethan (perhaps it's because of the name. Lena in Delirium also annoyed me to no end.) I'm happy that the second characters and the somewhat interesting story line saved this book for you.<br /><br />Mel@Thedailyprophecyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01516514938771433319noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5734740821043177646.post-65980337936528877862013-04-11T15:39:13.749+01:002013-04-11T15:39:13.749+01:00Bahahaha, I like that it got a star for not making...Bahahaha, I like that it got a star for not making you want to ragequit life. That's the best description ever. *wrings Tris' obnoxious neck* I HATED Divergent. FRIEND!!!!<br /><br />Um, yeah, this book. I hated the main characters a lot. Ethan didn't really read like a guy to me, and he was a such a whiny bitch. I just wanted him to shut up.Christinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00370486039531015541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5734740821043177646.post-5690660255093734582013-04-11T15:13:39.140+01:002013-04-11T15:13:39.140+01:00YAY!!! I LOVED RILEY AND MACON, TOO!! :) I think I...YAY!!! I LOVED RILEY AND MACON, TOO!! :) I think I gave this one a three as well. It was very mediocre - I liked it, but I didn't necessarily love it. Hahahaha @the poetry. Well, Lena isn't a writer that's for sure. Plus, it gets worse with every book in my opinion. Dark-Light was probably the most interesting thing for me too with all the ghost and I agree that it was very cliché for the most part. I loved Link so much haha :D he and Ridley were the best characters for me and yeah.. they continue to be awesome. I didn't finish the second book, but I really liked the third and the forth one. I hope you have better luck with this series:)Siirihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18265532869057616598noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5734740821043177646.post-25705074044860337462013-04-11T13:09:15.702+01:002013-04-11T13:09:15.702+01:00Sucks you enjoy this all that much.
