It's so true! That's kind of the whole point of the Lilith.

[oyceter]

I know! It would have been much more interesting with the Lilith.

[oyceter]

Yeah... I had the same problems you did with present day Hugh and Lilith.

This one's been recced to me, but from your review, I don't think I'd like it much. Should I give it a try? I didn't get into the one short story of hers I read.

[jenfullmoon]

So far this book was the only one of hers I was really into. Not sure why, exactly, but it was more interesting.

[oyceter]

I... am not sure if you'd like it? It's hard to say. Though I'd read it for the first part alone, and see if that's enough to catch your interest.

[oracne]

Maybe I'll look at it in the store!

[jenfullmoon]

I was pretty uninterested in Colin and Savi. Actually, that's not true. I like Colin, but Savi does NOT hold up to him at all. He desperately needed a more interesting partner. I also thought the whole "Oh noes, you're a vampire and thus you can't be sexually monogamous to me! Thus I shall go off and marry some traditional Indian male!" plot was freaking ridiculous.

[oyceter]

Aiiiieee to the traditional Indian male marriage. Sigh. I like that Savi had some character in this book, but I rolled my eyes a little at having an Indian character as a computer hacker and programmer (and I say this being a female Asian computer person myself and joining Savi in geek pride).

[jenfullmoon]

It's all the more ridiculous because it's blatantly obvious that it ain't happening. Savi's life is just too weird for even a lone date.
