All That I Am

세븐카지노ぱHOT424.comぱ세븐카지노 세븐카지노ぱHOT424.COMぱ세븐카지노When I decided to 세븐카지노put Cold Magic aside, after 세븐카지노67% of very little pleasure 세븐카지노and a lot of struggle, 세븐카지노I felt pretty angry and offended. 세븐카지노Angry, because reading these 360 세븐카지노pages took a huge effort and 세븐카지노did not dole out the tiniest reward. 세븐카지노Offended, because the book, 세븐카지노written by an author with quite some published writing to show as a proof for her skills, 세븐카지노made me question my ability to focus, my ability to absorb and understand what 세븐카지노I read and - for a short, 세븐카지노shocking minute – the functionality of my Kindle’s page-turning buttons. 세븐카지노I think I would have met the same experience with more detachment had I bought a glowingly praised debut cheaply at Smashwords. 세븐카지노Probably I would not have stayed as long on board of the shipwreck, 세븐카지노but I would have said with conviction: It’s not me. It’s the book. 세븐카지노It’s unreadable, but it shows room for improvement. 세븐카지노But how can I say that about a book which has 세븐카지노1.800 ratings that produce an average of 3.8 out 세븐카지노of 5? 세븐카지노How can I say that about a book that makes others buy the sequels for good money? You see my dilemma. 세븐카지노But I refuse to take the blame. 세븐카지노I rather dance the Cha-Cha with my fury as a partner. 세븐카지노And because I do not want to appear as someone impersonating Rumpelstiltskin without a plausible cause, 세븐카지노I am going to breathe in and breathe out and defend my sanity.세븐카지노I used to say that to me an enjoyable story begins and ends with likable, 세븐카지노complex characters and a believable setting. To my own astonishment I have to step back from that opinion now. 세븐카지노For I liked paranormally gifted Catherine 세븐카지노"Cat" Hassi Baharal, 세븐카지노her cousin Bee, enemy and love interest Andevai Diarisso Haranwy, a powerful cold mage view spoiler. 세븐카지노And I admit that there are a lot of great ideas thrown into the world mix: 세븐카지노A very alternative, slightly steampunky version of Europe, magicians, whose presence kills fire, 세븐카지노a parallel spirit world, sabertoothed werecats, dragons, feathered lizard-like trolls. The combination should unquestionably trump superhuman jerks pursuing brainless, 세븐카지노insta-love-seeking girls in front of a cardboard backdrop any day. It does not. 세븐카지노For Cold Magic is not a story. 세븐카지노It is a mess that needs to be chucked or rewritten from scratch.세븐카지노Like most of the fantasy readers out here I am bored by long monologues meant to introduce the unfamiliar, 세븐카지노fictional world and its inhabitants. 세븐카지노I also find books that treat the reader like an old acquaintance, who is already in the know, pretty difficult. 세븐카지노When I was reading Cold Magic 세븐카지노I came to the point at which I desperately wished for the arrival of an enormous info dump to finally get me on track or for a scattering of some new and helpful puzzle pieces to add to my inner picture. 세븐카지노Both wishes remained unfulfilled. 세븐카지노In almost each chapter the same incomprehensible, unstructured information about the last millennium's world politics, the wars, the Hassi Baharal family, 세븐카지노their niche in the world as spies, messengers, sailors, wandering scientists, sociologists and whatnot was repeated in different words, 세븐카지노sometimes even by different means, like in a letter or as a part of a diary. But each repetition remained lacking, vague and foggy. 세븐카지노If I were a drug user, I would surely have double-checked my dose. 세븐카지노Instead I checked myself for lack of sleep, 세븐카지노for symptoms of a beginning cold and for symptoms of beginning dementia. 세븐카지노I hated these self-directed doubts, really hated them. And I have no reasonable explanation for the novel’s lack of structure. Maybe the author taught a beginners' creative writing class, 세븐카지노threw the same keywords at each of the participants, 세븐카지노had them write her heroine’s background, 세븐카지노liked all results equally well and promised to use them all at some point of her next book? That cannot be, can it? But strange - The Long Cold Dark All That I Am
