Review: A Brush of Darkness by Allison Pang
I have mixed feelings about this book.
I love the unicorn, he's so funny. but I don't like my heroines to be cowards. that's why I read books: so I can see (read) what happens when someone with real guts takes charge of her destiny. having abby walk away from every confrontation was irratating. I wanted to slap her every time she told herself she was a coward! HELLO, do something about it, idiot!!!
the romance was seriously screwed up. for one, the relationship was doomed from the start because of what he is. he can't love, he's not made for it. and he was such an ass when he rescued her. she didn't have a nightmare of him attacking her because of his real form! she had just learned of his betrayal and her last relationship with an otherfolk consisted of blackmail and rape! is he so suprised when she dreams of him doing the same thing jett did to her after bargaining her life like that?
Moira was a little inconsistant. from the beggining she seemed like a cold bitch but at the end she does and about face and becomes the caring mother... I can't keep my feeling about her straight.
I love the prince, abby's bodyguard. I hope there will be some romance there but I would prefer later. she needs to grow a backbone before she gets into a possibly doomed relationship again. that way she won't fall apart and we won't have to read about her moaning and whining again for half the book until she hooks up with someone highly unadvisable in fit a self pity.
