Explanation In Pursuance Of Books Fateful

I rated this book 3.5 stars, and there are some slight spoilers, but they're not that huge. So read it now........if you DARE! Let me start off this review by saying that I love love love love love the American cover for this book. It has everything I want: it's got raised lettering, different textures, and it's oh so tantalizingly shiny. I'm seriously obsessed with it right now. Sometimes I just sit in my room for hours just stroking and thinking about the many dirty things I could do with it, because I'm totally cool like that. *drools just thinking about it* Ahem......but anywayssss.... on with what this review should be about: the inside of the book! Is it sad to say that I liked the male love-intrest a lot more than the MC? Because I really really enjoyed Alec a lot more than I ever expected to. I mean, it's about a werewolf. On the freakin Titanic. First off; Claudia Gray knows how to write a damn smexy character, and I could really picture his character and how he looked inside of my head. And I also loved his backstory; I just wanted to know as much about him as I could, and my heart always bled for him when we find out how much his curse has really destroyed his life. However, unlike a certain other character from Twilight a different novel that will remain unnamed, he just doesn't sit around twiddling his thumbs and feeling sorry for himself. He's actually trying to change and figure out a way to ease the pain and suffering that he has caused his father and, when he needs to, he'll put his love for Tessa aside in order to do what is best for the greater good, which is something rare that you don't see too often if the wild and dangerous world of YA novels these days. And I did like Tessa. She's definitely not the most stand-out female MC that I've ever read, but she was... nice. She wasn't a total idiot and said some very funny things sometimes. I didn't like the insta-love that happened with her, though. I got the typical: a weird zing went through me, our eyes met, my heart got stuck in my throat, and I couldn't stop staring at him insta-love. Blah. I've had enough of that in the 180+ books I've read on Goodreads and the hundreds, if not thousands that I've read on my own, so she lost a bit of respect with me there. She did have a backbone for the most part through the novel, and it was nice knowing that she was going to leave their service as soon as she got to America, which was why she was trying to be good with her employers, and that at least she was thinking horrible things about them. Also, the Brotherhood is freaking scary and messed up; I really like how Gray wrote them into the story. They were good suspense and really helped me connect to Alec's pain. Because Alec is just freaking awesome, and I love Alec. Oh, and one of the biggies that really made me like this book is that they actually have sex! It wasn't descriptive, though, Grey just tells you through Tessa that they did, but that's a hell of a lot better than many authors I've seen. I really just don't get it. What's so wrong with sex, authors? Most kids in this day and age have heard about it by sixth grade , if not earlier, from TV or some other source. Hell, some kids are fucking selling pot to their peers at the ripe 'ol age of six. I guess what I'm trying to say is get over sex, authors! America at least and most people that read YA these days are practically desensitized to that touchy (he he I'm punny) subject, so either write about it, or make your MC a nun. Or make them a nun, have sex with the priest, and get kicked out or something, dammit! Here's some of the things I didn't like, however. I really didn't like Tessa's family that she served, and not the hate dislike, I didn't like them because they weren't developed well by Gray. I felt like a lot of scenes with them were just re-recycled and just used over and over again. Tessa walks in. Tessa helps Irene. Lady Regina/Layton walks in and says mean things to Irene or Tessa. Tessa is frustrated. Tessa leaves. Tessa finds Alec. And it just goes on, and on, and on in the never-ending loop of boring repetitiveness to where I basically knew the nuts-and-bolts of what was going to happen before she even walks in. Bo-ring! And the ending was kind of......weird. I felt like that she just threw how Alec was able to survive because she needed to figure out somehow for him to come back. It didn't feel natural and the solution was basically thrown at me out of left field. I mean, the ending was cute that they could be together and all blah blah blah, but I feel like it should have happened differently than it did. In the end this book is a nice, light read, with a freaking adorably smexy love interest and an interesting enough premise that just slightly fell through. The writing was never stellar, but it was good enough for me to give it 3.5 stars, so if you're looking for an easy read that's not a series, pick this one up and buy the freaking book so that you can pet it!!! Ahem....I um... I mean.. Happy reading! Yeah....that's what I meant.

I adore Claudia Gray (a pseudo, in case you didnt know), as both a person and a writer. I followed her blog up until it became the non-active type it is today, finding her to be sweet and generous, as well as incredibly personable and friendly. Her debut series, Evernight, is one of the only vampire texts that I can stomach nowadays, and trust me, thats not a compliment I dish out to everyone. The moment Id heard she was working on something different, my excitement as well as my guard shot

*sigh*Take James Cameron's Titanic, swap Jack and Rose and make Jack a werewolf. There, I just saved you reading 325 pages. You're welcome.

3.5 stars for this wonderful titanic-retelling.I really liked the characters in this book, even the 'nasty' ones, our 'villains', because they are all really well developed and they come across as realistic and believable, keeping into account that this all is happening in 1912. I came to care for Alec and Tess a lot and I really liked the added minor characters as well. Great characters are so important I think, and these characters already made sure I came to love this book a lot, despite

I am bordering on 4.5 for this book.Okay, I will be the first to admit it... I had reservations about this book. It had nothing to do with Claudia Gray, or werewolves, or RMS Titanic ... I quite like all of those (well I like Claudia, like reading about werewolves and like the history of the Titanic), I just was not sure about the combination of all those things.I have always liked Claudias writing, but I must say, I liked this one the best. She done an amazing job of using old school language

As if the movie didn't make ne cry enough! This book put me in constant tears near the end! I thought we were gonna have the Titanic movie all over again! Thank God we didn't.

To be more accurate, I would like to rate this a 3.5!Okay, I'm pretty fascinated by the Titanic incident back in 1912. I've researched quite a lot on it. I've watched Titanic 17394840 times (the reason behind it being that it came on HBO so many times). I'm also fascinated by werewolves. So when Gray smashed these two together, I went ballistic. I was just like... MAD.Gray did a fantastic job with her research regarding the different classes on the Titanic. She did amazingly well on
