review 1: There were times when I really enjoyed Amber Frost and would get into the story and be keen to turn the page and find out what would happen next. But then something jarring would happen, yanking me back to reality and annoying me. The main reasons this would happen were:1) Dialogue - at times the dialogue just felt really unrealistic and I just couldn't imagine anyone saying it, let alone an eighteen-year-old girl; and2) Repetition - at times it seemed I was reading the same scene over and over again as the characters went through the same ideas and conversations without any advance in the story.That said, this book does have an interesting story idea and, though annoying at times, Sebastian and Grace are mostly okay characters. I have the two other books in the series her... moree to read and I am interested to see where Davis will take the story. I am hoping some of the kinks in this first book will be ironed out for the next two instalments.I received this book as a review copy from the publisher.
review 2: I'm more then half way through and just can't bring myself to finish it. Maybe one day but definitely not now. The main character is just incredibly annoying and completely shallow, despite the authors attempt to show otherwise. It takes forever for the story to actually take off, and everyone just seems winey. She ends up saying they get along because they're both good people but at the same time we constantly see her turn the other cheek when one of her friends is being rude or mean to someone. I really liked the idea behind it, but it just didn't follow up. At one point I thought I was reading Twilight seeing as how they managed to climb 50 feet up a tree and are sitting on the same branch together. Thats really high. Higher then normal people would climb. It just wasn't believable at all. And I really doubt a branch that high up could support them for long. Just saying. If this was written in the third person so we could see her acting and weren't so immersed in her head where all she talks about is how beautiful she is it would have probably been much better. less

mostly focused on the romance with not a very strong plot.
