He was just as morally wrong, and humans are just as brutal as vampires if not more. Not to mention how everything conveniently went his way. He would trap himself in stupid situations with his arrogance but yet still come out victorious, that was annoying. <br />i also hated how the author just seemed to ramble on about pointless things almost to just past time. The most annoying part is that the main protagonist had no real personal repercussion for his moral or illogical actions. the book ended with him having everything he wanted. i refuse to read any other books from this writer, this book left me so annoyed.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4438041449595085165.post-67611907302067246732010-01-09T07:09:50.917-05:002010-01-09T07:09:50.917-05:00Finished reading this last night.

The relationship between Dominikiia and Aleksei was done really well and I had the same sick feeling in my stomach that Aleksei must have had when he was watching her through her window.Fat Boy Markhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04659070917705693093noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4438041449595085165.post-73394311201397148192009-10-19T05:42:58.292-04:002009-10-19T05:42:58.292-04:00This book sounds great!

"Twelve" sounds spectacular; an intricate and solid book, which is an undefined hybrid with something for everyone from war novel fans, to deapth of character loving people and a bit of that unknown/paranormal/the edge of darkness/unexplained bit.Harry Markovhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09140305922494369576noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4438041449595085165.post-88026932832987347312008-12-29T04:02:00.000-05:002008-12-29T04:02:00.000-05:00Robert, very nice review as always :)I just receiv...Robert, very nice review as always :)<BR/>I just received this book too and I am looking forward to read it :)Mihai A.https://www.blogger.com/profile/08534691063946241019noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4438041449595085165.post-22847107890213362852008-12-29T03:38:00.000-05:002008-12-29T03:38:00.000-05:00This is not the first review I read about this boo...This is not the first review I read about this book. <BR/>Your review is excellent because it confirms why this book is on my list for 2009.ediFanoBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11129248787624088717noreply@blogger.com
