A review by mamers
House of Night #1 by Karl Kerschl, Kristin Cast, Joëlle Jones, P.C. Cast, Kent Dalian
Did not finish book.
I was finally approved for the giant 6 page preview arc! It only took 3 tries! Now I just find myself confused. Is this based on the first novel? Cuz of the 6 pages, 4 had nothing to do with [b:Marked|30183|Marked (House of Night, #1)|P.C. Cast|http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1317067002s/30183.jpg|30573].
Just sayin'.
No, really. Where did the Norwegian vamps come from? I know it's been a good two years since I read Marked, but I don't think I would completely miss a whole set of vamps from another country.
Next.
I have a serious problem with purposely poor grammar. This is an example of the dumbing down of America's youth. For-instance, "Whoever said 'everything can change in a day' musta been reading my future." Um, no. I don't care if the author is trying to be cool with teen speak. It's must have. (Best part is the fact that I wrote "cuz" in my first paragraph. Shut up, you.)
On to the graphics... I have mixed feelings. Sometimes the drawings are excessively beautiful, sometimes all I can look at are the extremely big heads.
Until I get a chance to read the full graphic novel, I will not be upgrading my two star rating. Nope. Can't do it.
