Q: Have you ever read a book that you thought you would hate — ? Did you end up hating it? Did you end up loving it? Or would you never do that?
A: I do not think I ever read a novel I thought I would hate but read some novels I was not sure how I was going to feel about.
Provoked (Dark Protectors #5)
Paranormal Romance (Adult)
Rating: 5 Stars - Perfect
What I love about Dark Protectors series by Rebecca Zanetti is that her secondary characters all play a big roll in the plot (never taking away from the hero/heroine story) and you get a feel of the characters and usually pairing them off with a mate you know they will get their own story. I was not sure how I was going to like Kane in Provoked because he is more in the lab and at times fight against bad guys but earlier novels were more of the other brothers. I was sure I was not going to hate his story just thought I would either like it or love it. I ended up freakin loving his story and his character. Provoked was another 5 star novel in Dark Protector series.
Lover Enshrined (Black Dagger Brotherhood #6)
Paranormal Romance (Adult)
It has been a while since I read BDB series. I remember reading them back to back and Lover Enshrined was my last read in this series. I know it has been awhile but I was not a huge fan of Phury. Nothing bad just his character did nothing for me. I was sure I was not really going to like his story and I did not. I do not think I hated it just thought it was the weakest of the BDB series. I think that the story fits his character but with all the other yummy Black Dagger heroes his was taken down a notch for me. I hope to some day soon start this series from the beginning since I am so behind and would love to see if I would find his novel any different in my liking.
Full Blooded (Jessica McClain #1)
Urban Fantasy (Adult)
Rating 4 stars - Loved It
Been awhile since I have read Urban Fantasy and was not sure since I have never read anything by Amanda Carlson how I would like her writing style and if I still enjoy Urban Fantasy. Loved Amanda Carlson writing voice and was happy I still enjoy Urban Fantasy. Been ages and was happy that I picked Jessica MaCain series, now I look forward to getting my Rourke fix in Hot Blooded #2.
Walking Disaster
New Adult
Rating 3 stars - Liked It
I do not where I stand with Beautiful Disaster. Lets just say 3 stars liked it. It has been awhile since I read it. Loved the plot idea but was not always feeling the characters especially Travis. So I could not wait for Travis's POV in Walking Disaster but was not sure how I was going to feel about it. I really wanted to get inside Travis's head but for me was not always feeling his anger etc. I did not hate or loved his novel I ended up liking it 3 stars. I felt like I only got in his a little bit. I wanted it to be intense and feel his pain and anger more.
Provoked sounds really good! I felt the exact same way about Walking Disaster. Thanks for stopping by my FF. New follower, love your blog (and the title) :-)

DeleteI do like Rebecca Zanetti, I have only read the first one in this series and liked it. I should really read the rest of them though.
ReplyDeleteI am loving Rebecca Zanetti (Dark Protector series). They get better and better with each new novel. I have yet to read a bad novel from her.

I haven't read a novel I thought I might hate either. I've been meaning to read Beautiful Disaster. Hopefully soon.

I look forward to see what you think of Beautiful Disaster when you do get a chance to read it. Thanks for stopping by and have a great weekend too.
DeleteI haven't read Beautiful Disaster or the companion novel because it is so controversial. I don't know if I will be able to handle it or not, but I will eventually give it a try.

I was fine with the way the plot is and liked it. I just needed it to be more intense and wow me because of the way the plot is.
DeleteGreat answer! I'm the same way. I'll always try a book to see if I'll like it, but never a book I think I'm going to be miserable reading.
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by my FF!

I do not think I would ever read a novel I think I would hate.
DeleteI didn't like Phury's book either.... The voice in his head... seriously!!! I did like the Walking/Beautiful Disaster books, but some things I wanted to see from Travis's POV were glossed over.
ReplyDeleteSorry I'm, late!! Thanx for visiting my FF!
