These sound interesting.

I was going to read Obsidian, her other series, next.

Me too I have read the first book in this series, and I am gonna wait until I get back from my trip, because I want to buy the books rather than reading them as ebooks.

This is the series with the VA comparison?

It is

I think the first half is VA comparison.. but it does come into its own as the book moves on.

I'm about half way through the book. I really do like it. But it's too much like VA. Some similarities would be fine. But it's almost exactly the same. I've read a little about the second book and there are still similarities. I really do enjoy the book so far, but I'm not sure what to think. To me the book is a huge mess of plagiarism.

I felt that too, but it does sort of start to become its own by the time you reach the end..

and I believe the 2nd book, it changes and stands on its own..

I had trouble thinking straight because of the similarities, but I did really like it.

I heard that too.

But I.. I don't know. I don't think it's right for an author to use another book series and pretty much copy it. I'm just confuse on how to feel about it.

I'm having a hard time understanding the whole God Killer thing.

I don't think she did it on purpose. Maybe she didn't even realize while writing it that it was quite similar

I guess the whole God Killer thing, is just someone having the ability to kill a God? The Mythology takes a while to get used to. A lot to absorb.

If that's the case I'm surprised that no one along the way had said something about it. I wonder what Richelle thinks about it. I don't think I've read two books that are this similar.

I do love the whole greek mythology.

Surprised her publisher hadn't said anything about it. But fans, especially on Goodreads have mentioned it quite often.

Yeah. I read those reviews. Maybe Richelle doesn't care? I do like at the beginning of the book she puts how to pronounce some of the words.

Yeah, I like that too. Because sometimes, you find words you are not sure how its meant to be pronounced.

And, I'm not sure if you have noticed yet.. but there will be the beginning of a love triangle. I have setted my side, and its Aiden.
