In regards to Eve and Adam, I'd skip it if I were you. I wasn't a big fan of it and even though I gave it 3 Stars, which means I somewhat like it, I'm not going to be continuing with the series. *shrug* Just my two-cents! ;) Keertanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01071392026876644282noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3523300192245025551.post-85412789605555752392012-09-24T16:31:21.267-04:002012-09-24T16:31:21.267-04:00Phew, someone else who wasn't impressed with O...Phew, someone else who wasn't impressed with Origin!

Originally I was planning on steering clear of this due to the Goodreads drama that played out early in the year, but the author apologized and all is well.

I love that this filled the whole that books like Eve and Adam left (ugh...debating whether I'm going to force my way through that one or not), and I LOVE huge plot twists. I think it's pretty hard to surprise people who read as much as we do, so when I book does I take note. I'll still probably wait for the series to be up, but I'll certainly be checking this out!Heidihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00416898799044848769noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3523300192245025551.post-56708926439031918112012-09-22T16:02:03.373-04:002012-09-22T16:02:03.373-04:00I have heard such great things about False Memory,...I have heard such great things about False Memory, and your review has made me want to read it even more!

In fact, the plot twist was just that - a plot twist. It ends quite nicely and the love triangle disappears roughly half-way through the novel. It's obvious who Miranda wants to be with and she's with him by the end of the book too, so you won't get your heart broken at all. I hope you still choose to read this book and I haven't scared you off because this book was fantastic! :)Keertanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01071392026876644282noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3523300192245025551.post-28295149621934277362012-09-21T20:58:27.494-04:002012-09-21T20:58:27.494-04:00Thanks Sam!
