I'm not sure what it was about this. The storyline and characters...or how closely it resembled Pride and Prejudice (I'm thinking of the film: the Keira Knightley one since it's the only one I've seen). But I really liked it. In fact I pretty much devoured it

It was definitely a fun young adult, modernised version and I wouldn't mind reading more like this or more books by the author.

"This is the unedited and unadulterated version of the stories that made up Isherwood’s books Goodbye To Berlin and Mr Norris Changes Trains, which were the source material for the play I Am A Camera and later the musical Cabaret. I find it fascinating that Isherwood still writes about himself in the third person. An interesting literary device, yet it feels like a smokescreen and leaves you wondering how much more there is to tell."

I gave this up at 37% because I've been reading it for 9 days and have hardly gotten anywhere. Don't get me wrong. I like it. It's just not grabbing my attention like most books do and I always pick it up to start it and read about two pages before I put it back down again to read something that does grab my attention and makes me want to read it.

Gray Moon Rising (Seasons of the Moon #4) by S.M. Reine
LOVED THIS SERIES!!!! Yes, they are aimed at Young Adult and No, I'm not. That did not stop my enjoyment of them one iota. This book has everything that you could wish for in the final book in a series and enough left to keep you wanting more. Luckily for me, there is more, which I'm just about to go and get!

SM Reine has kept the quality and entertainment going throughout the four books and the character development has been a wonder to read. The plot is fast-paced and edgy.

Definitely recommended to one and all, not just YAs, especially as you can now get this as a box set too.

I really enjoyed this book. I found that the storyline was not predictable and that I was constantly on the edge of my couch reading this book. I finished this book in 24 hours. It was extremely good and I found myself captured by this book.

The writing was better than I expected. Most romance books that I have read are poorly written and filled with smut. I found that this book was well written and I didn't feel like the sex was too over the top.

The characters were lovable and I found myself laughing many times. I loved all of the characters and felt like the author knew what she was talking about.

All in all, this was a very good book. I will definitely look into Cindy Gerard's books in the future.
