*Bone Crossed* by Patricia Briggs

This makes book 4.5 completed in 2009, for those of you keeping score at home.

In Bone Crossed, Patricia Briggs crafted a masterful plot and deep characters whom I felt strongly about. Her world building continues to astound me in its balance of subtlety, texture, and completeness. Bone Crossed was worth every moment of waiting for since I finished

EXCELLENT review. Do you have this posted as public? I think it would be awesome if Patty got to read it. In fact... I might know someone who could email the link to her. :) If you don't mind. But it's one of the most insightful reviews I've read so far and I agree with it 100%.

LOVED the book. LOVED IT!!

I only posted paragraphs two and three on facebook's main book review site and haven't posted anything on Amazon yet. I feel like the sixth and seventh paragraphs are kind of harsh ... enough that I almost didn't post them here. But, maybe I'm assuming the rest of the world has skin as thin as mine. But if you really think she'd like to read it, Patty and I are loose acquaintances and (since I'm honored that you liked it) I'd also be honored if it was helpful or interesting to Patty.

And, I know! Wasn't it fabulous?!?!

I didn't think it was harsh at all actually. I thought you had good reasoning behind it and also tempered your thoughts with how much you loved the subplots so you didn't really take anything away at all.

But I know Patty enjoys a good discussion. She did one last year after Iron Kissed about rape and such. It was pretty awesome. I forgot what blog it was on though.

Oh, good! I'm just a sissy then. By all means, if you've got an email address for her, send her along.
