Finished the Immortals series. It's very different from the others, and I like it. It's interesting to look at the battles and politics from the outside. Diane never gets that involved or at least we don't see it, until the very end when she finally kicks some ass. I think one of you already mentioned it before too.

So, since I read the Immortals I decided to go on and read Protector of the Small.
I got to book four and I need a break. Wow, I never noticed that she seems to over describe everything, especially in the beginning chapters. Or maybe it just never bothered me as it does now. It's just... annoying.

AHHH!!! I'm so sorry. It's just one of things I noticed and I was hoping maybe someone could help me not see it.

So, I'm reading Mastiff... and it's killing me. From what I garnered from goodreads and tumblr POSSIBLE SPOILERS >> something kind of bad happens in the end, the twist that made some people hate the book. One of the main characters does something bad. Now I'm kind of scared.

GIVE ME REASSURANCE!!!

I finished. And I cried tears of sorrow and betrayal. I can see why people complained, but I think I sort of understand why she did it.

What do you think about the whole twist thing?
