Bloody Bookaholic's Commandment:

Thou Shall Read Till Thy Eyes Bleed

Saturday 14 January 2012

I started reading My Soul to Take by Rachel Vincent

And I have decided I already like this main girl (Kaylee). This is what made me like her:

My Soul to Take (Soul Screamers, #1)
"What do you want from me?" I spat it out before I could change my mind. 
 Nash's eyes changed in surprise, and he sat back hard against the passenger's side door, as if I'd shoved him. "I just... Nothing." 
"You want nothing?" I wanted to see the deep greens and browns of his irises, but the beam from the nearest streetlight didn't reach my car, so only the dim light from my dashboard shone on him, and it wasn't enough to illuminate his face. To let me truly read his expression. "I can count the number of times we've really spoken before tonight on one hand." I held that hand up for empahsis. "Then you come out of nowhere and play white knight to my distressed damsel, and I'm Supposed to believe you want nothing in return? Nothing to tell your friends about on Monday?" 
 He tried to laugh, but the sound was stilted, and he shifted uncomfortably in his seat. "I wouldn't -" 
"Save it. Rumor has it you've conquered more territory than Ghenghis Khgan." 
A single dark brow rose in the shadows, challenging me. "You believe everything you hear?"
My eyebrow shot up to mirror his. "You denyin' it?"
She was at a club with her best friend just dancing and stuff and Nash decides to talk to her for some reason I am sure we will find out soon enough, and as she was giving him a ride back home this convo occurred. I like her because she didn't just count her lucky stars that the popular guy in school decided to finally pay attention to her, she just flat out confronted him. Which is in my book pretty awesome cause I was just expecting her to be all "woohooo and I don't really care why he finally decided to talk to me lalalalala".

  4. This series took me a little bit to get into. I found Kaylee a tad whiny. She's growing on me though.

  8. Yayyy!! I love Kaylee! She's a pretty tough chick and has no problem putting Nash in his place ;) Best part is she's very self-sacrificing and she gets stronger w/ each book.

    So glad you're reading it!

  9. Have you read any of her Shifters books? I picked up one on a whim and kind of liked it, but I wasn't knocked out by it. Please tell me this is better!

  10. Haha! Yes, I must admit that characters like Kaylee are refreshing if for no other reason than because they don't immediately swoon and fall for the dashing hero. A healthy level of suspicion is always required when approached by hot guys with a reputation. Love the Genghis Khan line!:)
