Curses


I'm UK and this stuff never happens around where i live, now if only i could finish The Purge book 1 and have it done by December. And if my parents would be willing to pay for Overseas payment.

Stuart1512:
PS: anyone notice that the book covers look like Manga covers? thats what i first thought when i clicked the link

Kiriath:
I noticed that, Stuart, and I think they look badass. :D

Wired's cover got me to glance at in the store before I even heard about this line, but the romantic leanings made me feel cautious.

Well, I'm reading Driven and so far it's the two lead characters having thoughts about how hot his/her body is.  ::) But I was flipping through the book and I did come across one mild sex scene. Well, mild for me. I think these books are geared towards young women. And any description about these books starts with the word romance.

So I think since the bookline is new, it's probably still trying to find it's place. I think the covers would appeal to guys, even though the books have female leads. I think it would be better if the bookline offered male leads as well.

And last night I got to thinking how Driven reads like a Louis L'mour western. Only set in the future. Instead of going on a cattle drive through barren, dangerous outland and outwitting rustlers, the characters are going on a 18-wheeler drive through barren, dangerous outland and outwitting rustlers.
