Dangerous Deception by Kami Garcia, Margaret Stohl
2.0
OMG IT'S OVER!
I swear I can see the light at the end of the tunnel guys. I'm free from this series and I'm so happy it was only 2.5 books. I can't contain all of my excitement right now. It's over. It's really over.
Okay, so Dangerous Deception was so freaking boring. I might be in the minority of this book but I swear to god people.. did we read the same book? There is no way that this should earn 5 stars - like, at all.
So Ridley gets captured in this book and is basically held hostage for the entire book. Color me shocked because the entire book is about her friends looking for her. THE ENTIRE BOOK PEOPLE. I don't even like Ridley that much to spend an entire book looking for her. Honestly, I didn't even care if they did find her or not. Just know.. that I would've ditched that search party real quick.
Besides not liking Ridley, I still don't like Link or Nox. Again, it didn't matter to me that Link and Ridley weren't together for more than half of the book. Also, the ending did nothing for me. I'm not shooked from it. I simply just didn't care for it. I kind of forced myself to finish off this series and I'm glad that it's finally over.
Plus it was really stupid, cliche, and predictable that the only person who could save Ridley from where ever she was.. well, was herself. Congrats Ridley you did it.. it just took you a whole book to figure it out though. Aside from Link and Ridley, Nox also annoyed me to no end. He was acting like a baby back bitch for most of the book. I just wanted to slap the shit out of him and tell him to man up.
Overall, I'm disappointed in this spin off series but that's mostly because I just didn't like the characters. I don't even know why I wanted to read them in the first place.. maybe I was hoping that they would change my opinion of them.. but it actually made me hate them a hell of lot more.
Sorry to everyone that actually liked this series - you guys are still winners in my book! Keep reading my friends <3
