This book was better than the first novel in the series. Granted, it still had all the weird and totally ditzy internal dialogue side-bar crap I hated about the first one, but there was less of it. I certainly like how the plot was written, better, in this book, too. The idea that Rome forgot all about Belle when his memories were stolen and thus was assuming he was still with his ex tugged on my heart strings. It was easy to sympathize with Belle. It became easy to dislike Lexis, the ex. It was easy to root for Belle as Roman became attracted to her again, and started to decide he didn't care if he could remember her or not; he wanted her anyway and wanted to get to know her again. If the author would quit with the off-the-wall slang with the corny dialogue and informal to the point of teenager-like writing, I might actually enjoy her books. I'd also like to see a little less withholding of the sex, too. It seems like she drags out the tension TOO long (although she is masterful at making hot and steamy tension; props for that), so that the first sex scene is like in the last 1/3rd of the book. That's frustrating.
I freaking L-O-V-E-D it!!!The second book and from what I have read and seen "final book" in the Tales of an Extraordinary Girl series was an amazing 5 star read for me. No surprise there though because Ms. Showalter always exceeds my expectations. This book continues almost where the first book left off and starts with a big bang and doesn't stop! This book about became the death of me. Seriously. I wanted to kill Rome's ex-wife just as much as Belle did. What a back stabbing awful bitch. (Sorry, just had to get that out there!) I read this one in one sit-down (just like the first) and I didn't stop until the very last page. Let me say, if you haven't read this series then you should because you are 100% missing out! I love everything about this story, the characters, and their awesome "powers". I am really upset and sad to see it go. Ms. Showalter should definitely write more of this series... they are so addicting! I would highly recommend them!
Loved this series. I'm hoping Miss Showalter will write a little more of Wonder Girl and her CatMan.
Great read, fast pace, good energy. Gena never disappoints in her writing
I want more please , pretty please :)
