I get what you mean when you say they could have been replaced by a totally different bunch and not really hurt the story. That's not something I'm too crazy about, but I still care enough about their predicament at this point to want to read about how they survive it. <br /><br />Thanks for the review! =) Have I told you lately how much I love your review style?Enbrethilielhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03414765854670926854noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8748092811661673218.post-89127443029397336912012-01-29T02:52:05.008-05:002012-01-29T02:52:05.008-05:00I've read this up to mid-book, but it wasn'...I've read this up to mid-book, but it wasn't too my taste.

I 100% agree with you that real life scenarios that could happen are often the ones that scare us most and grab us the most.<br /><br />It sounds like the story could have been made even better by getting to know the characters a little better, so that you're more invested in the outcome.<br /><br />Great review, I am hoping to pick this one up this winter.
