Dammit! I'm working on something angel-related. This makes me sad. (Though I'd hope mine won't be quite so fail.)

[ceilidh_ann]

Nothing you could write could possibly be as bad as this book was. The only reason it isn't on fire right now is because I vehemently oppose book burnings, even for this shittifying excuse for a novel.

[duckgirlie]

I was hoping I could beat the paranormal-romancification of angels, but it seems it's not to be. Though my Angel probably gets drunk way more then any of these guys. Still no sex though.

[ceilidh_ann]

These guys are only angels in the same way the Cullens were vampires. Frankly, you could have crossed out all the angel references and replaced them with "flying moon monster with an arse for a face" and nothing would have changed. You could buck the trend by actually writing a good book!

Damn, I almost forgot, I've still got one angel book left on the list.

Thank you very much.

It's not even a funny bad, which may be the worst thing of all. But don't worry, book number 4 in the Sparkle Project has the greatest drinking game potential I've seen in a book since the later Anita Blake books!

I'm actually stunned. Horrified. How the hell did this book get published?

[ceilidh_ann]

The surge of popularity in the genre is my guess. The sequel is being rush released this year too, just to keep up with the fad. Bah, JK Rowling didn't rush for no man!

[seneska]

Jesus could have asked for a new update from JK and she still wouldn't have rushed. All that time waiting for the 5th book only to read it in a night and cry so much that my face went blotchy for two days. Not fun.

[ceilidh_ann]

I could take a million HP induced tears over this because I actually gave a shit about JK Rowling's work. This was just rubbish of the highest/lowest order.

Yep, our love interest’s name is Patch. Truly rolls off the tongue; I can imagine calling out his name as I ask him to come inside from the fields for a nice bone.

Have I mentioned lately that I love you?

Brilliant. :)

[ceilidh_ann]

Aw thanks dearie, I love you too.

Periously, Patch? It's beyond belief.

Trying to kill someone does not count as a date.
Oh. Now I see what I'm doing wrong.
I definitely have to read this one! Not so bothered about Blue Bloods.

It's a common mistake, don't worry too much.

You know you're getting the entire cycle, don't try and wriggle your way out!

[sess_satan]

...Oh shit.

Muwahahahaha! My evil plan is working! Soon you shall be my loyal minion and we shall inflict pain on the world together!
