mrremi 's review for:
Damsel Under Stress
by Shanna Swendson
Ok, so as with the other books this was quirky and fun. Just a good read for enjoyment. The only thing I didn't like was the way it ended.
******SPOILERS******
Now yes, some of this is partially because you never like it when as everything is coming back together the suddenly are apart and the main character is leaving the interesting world that she was thrown into. However, the bigger thing I don't like is that this plot event seems to happen in so many books that involve a romance. We wait and wait for the main character to get with their true love interest, we finally get it for like one book and then the main character suddenly realized that they are hindering their love interest in some way.... "I'm holding him back" or "Im putting them in danger" blah blah blah. It happens like clockwork and then in the next book we will find her trying to live her life in the "new world" after they leave the love interest and job etc. But it eventually finds her and she realizes her mistake and they can make it work. Blah Blah. And I spend that entire time while they are split being frustrated because I'm reading the same thing again, and because the main characters are always being stupid. So yeah, good book, but now we get to spend the next book walking through this annoying and predictable sequence until they get back to it in a book or two.
