Bree Despain - The Eternety Key

"I can feel the golden thread of my new destiny, the one I’d chosen for myself, slipping through my fingers."

    Urgggh! Can't believe that's happening to me again! That I launch into a promising story full of untapped intrigues and deep dark secrets then bang! it is only made into three books so as to stall the course of events especially made for angsting me. Damn it. Urgggh! once again.
    As you can forbode, I usually go for an action-packed thrill and a raised-level blood pulse, but what I get is a hoity-toity rambling and an unintermitted retelling of the freaking evident!!!

With or without you

     I would expect it to be truthful to the passages of a young adult and while Haden fits the elementary qualities what a ya hottie ought to possess, on Daphne's part I just feel ignorance. Is she so much engaged in her trust issues that she shuts her eyes to the freaking-eight-abs-underrealmly-gorgeousness rather than make a bolt for him? Outrageous! And the question is on what grounds? The bullshit train must have taken offfff. And from now on, it is unstoppable.
     The acutely-calculated twist and turn comprises the moment when like a stroke of lightning she opens her "inner" eye and perceives she's not the middle of the universe. How cliché is that? Good job hon, keep going!
      It is likely the author concocts a master plan how they will end up together at the end of the series but the crumbs of showing their affection is not the least satisfiable. I feel like a leering puppet gazing at a feasible-ready-to-fall crumb of meat from the dinner table, but instead the head of the family gives me a kick.
      Largely, Daphne doesn't own any attractive feature to make her a positive strong heroine. She'd hardly stand her ground in the mortal dimension if we stripped her off the Greek mythology lacquer.

      "I’d thought I could choose my own path. Weave my own destiny. But the thread I’d been clinging to hasn’t just slipped through my fingers, it has unraveled and snapped."

      I don't need to emphasize the fact that there is absolutely no reason to recite what is happening from three different perspectives. The pastry-cooks also know that 3 layers of marzipan makes the cake concupisible but inedible at the same time. I would have passed over it in silence in case I had gotten a steamy, slouchy, snogging backup story. Obviously, I had not. The only vantage of it is I am a Greek myth addict thus I did not sweep it aside after a couple of chapters that I should have apparently done.

P.S. I hoped for some reasoms that Haden and Garrick might have some brotherhood-developement during the hardship of their quest. Only a treacherous rat crosses my way of expectations and spats me in the face. As in, I don't fancy you, Garrick.

Favourite character: Haden

Least favorite character: everyone else

The great question of life

I feel like earning a medallion for having been put through The Eternity Key and still there is one more to go. The Immortal. To read or not to read? As I need to ready my mind for a reading experience beset with imperative hardships and a lot of angst...yeesh...nope it's totally not gonna happen!
