Terrible. Reading this book was very frustrating because I could see it had potential to be a great book. The idea of incarnation and love that spans lifetimes was good, but the execution was so awful.The writing was painfully amateurish. The dialogue was annoying and unrealistic, filled with several exclamation marks for emphasis! The main character was colorless and lifeless. The side characters were caricatures and seemed really...stupid. I don't mean that as an insult, I literally mean theyRecipe for The enternal ones1. Create a base for this concoction were making : Idea of reincarnation, soul mates and love never forgotten always makes for a yummy backdrop. Too bad theres an eerily similar idea out there already (My name is memory by Ann Brashares)but who cares, no one would notice as they lap this book up.2. Mould one heroine: Do remember to make her incredibly silly, vapid and fickle; make her as unbearable and unlikable as you can. Ooh and make her sew clothes. How random and
It helps if you imagine this reading experience as a kind of conversation.Book: Hey, look, reincarnation!Me: Meh. Seen it. Hindus do it better. Wait, is this about someone who comes back as an animal but remembers being human? That would be shiny.Book: ....no. It's about a girl who comes back as another girl and is in love with the same guy.Me: Blech.Book: But... LURVE! TWOO LURVE THRU TEH AGEZ!Me: Look, can I go back to my sci-fi now?Book: But I have true love! And a gay best friend!Me: Not
Before I begin my review, Id like to talk about reading lest I come over as pretentious in my thoughts and observations about the books I read. Before I started taking classes that dealt with analyzing literature, I used to be able to jump into a book and surf the plot to the finish without any other thought than my enjoyment of it. I read the story but I didnt read what the characters said and did beyond their presence in the book. To elaborate, I was entirely unaware of the stories that the
Im starting to think that it is pretty much impossible to do these eternal love stories really well. Ill probably keep looking for one though, because I think the idea is really wonderful. This book centers on Haven Moore, a 16 year old girl from East Tennessee and her eternal (via reincarnation) love affair. Throw in some bad guys who are after Haven and her man, and you have your story.The issue with stories like these is that because of this supposed eternal connection of souls, there is no
My thoughts:[return]The Eternal Ones arrived in my mailbox on Friday. I sometimes peruse through books I receive for review just to get a sense of the book. When I read the first few paragraphs, I became engrossed, planted in my chair for hours. The skeptic in me says there is no such thing as love at first sight. The woman in me says perhaps there truly is. With my daily schedule put on hold, I was held captive by this romantic suspense. Kirsten Miller creates the perfect mystery with surprise
