Okay so. I finished that book I've been talking about, the book I'm not supposed to have right now...but do, thanks to the stupidity of Barnes & Noble workers (and that stupidity is just fiiiiine by me).
Kiss. Whoa. The one thing I've noticed about every Ted Dekker book (other than the book he cowrote with Frank Peretti, House, which is still a truly freaky book) is this: you never really can see the ending. No matter how hard you try as you're reading, as you're halfway in, as you're wondering how on Earth everything could possibly work out for the heroine or hero...there's something about the ending that you won't see coming.
Oh, yeah, and there's one feeling I kept getting. This might've slightly been The Host if Stephenie Meyer had used third person...even though Kiss didn't use an "invasion of the body snatchers" element, Shauna McAllister (the heroine) just stole people's memories when she had any physical contact with them in intense moments.
Maybe Shauna just reminded me of Mel/Wanda.
OH YEAH. HAPPY NEW YEAR YOU GUYS. Wherever you are.
