Breaking Dawn Chapter Nine
Billy is waiting for Jake outside. Jake wheels his dad in and they banter about family. Apparently Jake has a couple of sisters. I smell RetConrete drying, don’t you? One of them is the imprintee for Paul while the other … Continue reading
Breaking Dawn Chapter Eight
I warn you there is some digression before I get into this chapter. What really bugs me about Otis is not her author’s voice, it’s her violation of my one rule. You see, I have a cardinal rule that an … Continue reading

Breaking Dawn Chapter Four
Well these are cooking right along. Short chapters and a, relatively, short book. I again reassert that Otis had a ghost writer on this. She still made sure to add all the worst elements from her own writing, she just … Continue reading

Eclipse Chapter Twenty Three
So I’ve been peeking ahead in Breaking Dawn. I wanted to get an idea of what I’m up against before tackling it. I made it to the dedication and had to stop right there. Otis thanks Muse for ‘a series … Continue reading
Eclipse Chapter Twenty Two
The title of this chapter alone is worth a swift to Otis, notice I didn’t state where. This one is called ‘Fire and Ice’ which reminds me of the George R.R. Martin series a Song of Fire and Ice. To … Continue reading
Eclipse Chapter Twenty One
What better way to make your audience regret they ever progressed beyond Dick and Jane than having your character recap what they just read in the previous chapter? The first couple of paragraphs are just that. This is a recap … Continue reading
Eclipse Chapter Fifteen
Thanks for the positive comments folks. It’s good to see somebody is enjoying this besides myself. For more things that Otis has borrowed elements from, besides the Southern Vampire Mysteries, see this link. I only remembered it because an ex … Continue reading
