Wicked Lovely - January 27th 2010, 07:46 AM

Okay, I am reading wicked lovely and I just want to know what your opinion is of the book.

I like it but I feel that it is missing a lot of depth. It took me so long to get invested in the characters and I feel as though I cannot see what they look like in my head.

So far it seems like a decent story and I definitely want to see what happens but idk it just isn't as good of a book as I thought it would be.

I think the author should have done a lot more character development but I am one of those people that likes to know a lot about the characters and have the plot follow. I mean, I feel without characters you can relate to/care about everything else is just moot.


There could never be amore beautiful you
Don't buy the lies, disguisesandhoops they make you jump through
You were made tofill a purposethat only you could do
So there could never be amore beautiful you
-Johnny Diaz


Everyday
is so wonderful
And suddenly it's hard to breathe
Now and then I get insecure
From all the pain, I feel so ashamed

I am beautiful no matter what they say
Words can't bring me down
I am beautiful in every single way
Yes, words can't bring me down, oh no
So don't you bring me down today

To all your friends you're delirious
So consumed in all your doom
Tryin' hard to fill the emptiness, the piece is gone
Left the puzzle undone, ain't that the way it is?

'Cause you are beautiful no matter what they say
Words can't bring you down, oh no
You are beautiful in every single way
Yes, words can't bring you down, oh no
So don't you bring me down today

This is my review of it on goodreads.com:

Quote:
Wicked Lovely was... interesting. It started out fairly bland, and then got pretty good towards the middle. The end was somewhat mediocre, I lost interest and start skimming the pages. But overall, it was an enjoyable, very quick read. Some of the characters were so underdeveloped that I kept forgetting who they were when they were randomly mentioned. Marr didn't really do a good job at explaining everybody and such, and I found the characters a bit hard to follow. But other than that, it was all right. I'm hoping the sequel will be better.
So yep, I pretty much agree with you.

lol. Okay, so it isn't just me! Whew. LOL.

Yeah, Idk, I am more into seeing the characters in my mind and I just couldn't with her books. I liked the ending and all but it was way too predictable. The ending was worse than twilights and twilight was quite predictable.

I think she has a great imagination but I think now a days places are publishing paranormal books as fast as they can to get money. They are not looking at the quality.

I couldn't even pick up any messages in the book and I like books to have a message.
