A review by tenn48
Blood Brothers by Nora Roberts
2.0
The best part of the book was when the boys were 10 years old. The description of the thing haunting the MC was creepy enough for me not to read this at night, but other than that, I was rather bored.
I hated Quinn. I presume she was meant to be a strong, female character but she was overbearing and had no regard for other people's wishes. I felt no chemistry between her and Cal. I still don't know what they like about each other aside from looks. Speaking of Cal...he was quite a bore. Except, of course, for when he was ten years old.
I enjoyed Fox and Gage more, though all the characters' personalities kind of blended sometimes. The endingーwhat I'd expected to be the final fight sceneーwas trash. Sorry. I was really expecting something huge or exciting and neither came to be. It just...ended. The ending made me feel that the entire group of 6 was unnecessary and that one person could've handled it.
I started this series because I'd read The Key Trilogy several years ago and I really enjoyed it. This basically follows the same formula of three couples fighting something supernatual. Formula is fine. The execution was lackluster.
I may read the second book since I found Fox the most interesting... it's a thought.
