This is like the entirety of my feelings about Prophecy, which makes it all the more depressing to know that NOTHING CHANGED and Oh's writing didn't get any better. Ugh. I tried to warn you about this but, man, you are stronger than I am. Applause for your endurance. I could not have taken that. The first book was already so tempting to DNF. I dunno what Harper was thinking with this series... The editor needs a reality check (or preferably be fired). *pouts*<br /><br />Awesome review though xD I definitely giggled far too much to not be apparent here in the office.Debbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07067361314969302669noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4932292247636823526.post-42278126685216959302013-12-03T08:28:54.384-05:002013-12-03T08:28:54.384-05:00LOLZ FOREVERZ.

(And for mentions of Shin Bo Hyun. I'm honestly amazed I still remember his name, but the crackshipping opportunity present with him helps.) This sounds like it could be a little more fun if Kira decided to fuck around with the idea of the prophecy (not doing things because prophecy says to do them only for things to happen anyway and her frustration at that/riffing on the trap of prophecy; I don't even know because it would take some serious work to make any of this even remotely entertaining), but the writing is a killer. The bad, lock-me-up-copper kind of killer.<br /><br />Also, I have never seen that entire six-gif set together before. Them being together like that is almost hypnotic.<br /><br />At least you know to stop here and not try again with the third book, right?

And I probably sho...Oh man, I am SO ready for this. And I probably shouldn't comment buuuuuuuut whatever. Also, I just learned not to stretch out but with multiple t's, a process which involved me snorting very maturely and attractively.<br /><br />You know, SOME people say that reviewers should never actually say a book is "bad," because that's mean. It should just be "not for you," but you know what? Some books are fucking bad. Or even terrible. And, generally, you can tell the difference. <br /><br />But, seriously, why isn't this great? WHY? Can someone take the idea and rewrite it? Please? I want some hot Koreans in my fiction. At least Katie has my back on that.<br /><br />Small and useless = Taejo's whole character. He's one of the most dynamic of them all. TWO DESCRIPTORS.<br /><br />Well, if the prophecy says I should go get drunk and throw this book off a bridge, then I guess I should. But, seriously, you are a woman of action, so make your own choices. You're not a strong character if you just do what people say ALL THE TIME.<br /><br />I never actually took a creative writing class. They actually TELL you (ironic) to show not tell? Then what was with all those authors going NO THIS IS THE BEST WAY SHADDUP.<br /><br />Kira was a stone imitating a person. In the Hollywood version of Prophecy, Kira would be played by Kristen Stewart, because she's probably 1/88th Korean or something. You can totally see it. *refers to morning's discussion that I think you missed*<br /><br />THIS IS TERRIBLE NEWS. LOLLLLLLLLLLLL at the Beast gif. LOLLLLLLLLLL.<br /><br />The dialogue tags are important because that is literally the only way emotion is conveyed ever. These books are the equivalent of someone reading in a monologue.<br /><br />Battle over in four short sentences. IS THIS THE REAL LIFE? OR IS IT JUST FANTASYYYYYYY?<br /><br />"isntrument" *coughs*<br /><br />OH MY GOD THE ROMANCE QUOTE.<br /><br />Kira becomes Plato? O_O LOL WUT. When characters reveal a skill they never exhibited before because of plot needs, that's good writing. Oh wait, no, scratch that. It's the other one. I meant bad. I'm looking at you too, LEGEND OF KORRA.<br /><br />OH MY GOD THAT GIFSET.
