What do you mean by 'purple'?

[calico_reaction]

This explains it better than I could: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Purple_prose

:)

And I should note that the description is often in the eye of the beholder. So what's purple to some may not be purple to others. :)

Can you see it now? :) I happened to notice it just in passing, by accident.

[calico_reaction]

I know, right? It's so obvious once you see it, but until you see it, it's total camouflage!

Let me know your thoughts when you finish it! :)

I am with you on waiting until the paperback version comes out. That said, I can't wait to read it. Thanks for the review! :)

[calico_reaction]

Sometimes, it's really hard to wait. :) When you do get around to reading it, though, be sure to let me know! :)

It lacked conflict. That was the biggest problem, IMHO. I mean, I'd read, but then when I put it down, I didn't feel like picking it up again. I never like having that feeling with books.

Heh. I'm glad to hear I infected someone else with my visions. :)

Yeah, I'm both curious and worried about a sequel. We do have the conflict with Shelby, and then there's Grace's friend who's now a wolf, and I think there might be some conflict with Isabel. After all, her brother died of the cure, but somehow, Sam survived.

I don't know. If I read it, I think I'll try to get my hands on an ARC.
