Untamed Chapter 27

Why do fledglings get their powers before they’re mature? Unlike the rest of vampiric puberty, the extra powers aren’t something that’s inevitable. Nyx has to give them to someone, right? Which means she has to sit down, pick a moron … Continue reading

Untamed Chapter 26

This is what happens when I set a future post. I pick the wrong date, because it’s late in the morning, and I don’t notice it didn’t go up. Anywho, here’s the post. Why is telling, not showing, a bad … Continue reading

Untamed Chapter 25

At least we now have a time line for this book. As Zoey mentioned the upcoming ritual, I have to figure there will be at least two more chapters for day two. The rest will be day three except maybe … Continue reading

Untamed Chapter 24

So, I have to ask, what exactly is the point of Kalona? It’s just that he sounds like a big bad/satan character and those usually have a point. Sometimes, it’s to tie the character’s story into something bigger than themselves … Continue reading

Untamed Chapter 20

Part of what makes this story so intolerable is the lack of consequences for anything, at least not as it applies to Zoey. This latest moment between her and Erik is just more evidence of the fact. Look, it doesn’t … Continue reading

Untamed Chapter 19

At what point does a book no longer qualify as a story? I’ve been asking myself that a lot lately with how badly paced this one is. It has a lot of the same elements as a real book, a … Continue reading
