Ok. I've figured it out.

I think I figured out why I don't like Lissiana- she's immature. I just can't believe that she is really a vampire and really two hundred years old. She is still 23 to me.

When something happens I want her to be all calm and cool (like some other handsome vamp we all know) and have things thought out but she is running about like a teenager who is afraid of her Mom. You'd think at 200 she'd be capable of making a good decision.

I can't wait to finish so I can talk more about it...

Lissiana- how do you feel?

Maybe it is just because I am going to read Pride and Prejudice next, but I want Lissiana to be more likable- a better heroine. She gives me nothing. I don't find her interesting and I can't imagine her facial expressions or movements- I really hate that.

Is this due to the author? Or is this character just not as interesting as I want her to be.

Cass- what do you think? Do you identify with any of the characters in this book or anyone of Sands' other books?

Also, I posted a poll- so vote one way or another.

A Quick Bite




Our first book is A Quick Bite, by Lynsay Sands.

I'm about half way done. It is my very first romance novel, but I am sort of surprised that Twilight seemed much more romantic than this book is. Don't get me wrong, it's not bad, but it's not my favorite. I just don't identify with any of the characters.

The she-vamp and main character of the book is Lissiana. She does nothing for me. I'm just not sure she is interesting. And Greg- her sexy therapist seems like an actor to me and not a real person. I feel sort of like I'm watching a bad movie when I read it.

Also, I can stop reading it whenever I want. I love books that I can't put down. I don't even mind stopping mid-chapter.

I would love to hear some thoughts or comments...
