blafferty 's review for:
Lover Enshrined
by J.R. Ward
I really liked this one, and not for reasons I would normally. I liked the fact that Phury waffles back and forth and breaks his promises and doesn't know what he wants. And the subplots continue to be awesome, drawing me to the next book(s). I also like the way each male and female character is totally different - sometimes in romance series like this they seem to blend together, because each is really just a character type. Cormia really has her own personality that is very unique.
One thing keeps jarring me out of the story in this series, though - I can ignore the overly slang-y speech of the younger warriors (who actually says POS for piece of shit or abso for absolutely?), but the product placements are just weird. I almost feel like the author is getting a handout for mentioning them. I mean, the brand of a suit - ok. But mentioning a Kohler sink? What is that? That doesn't make it seem more real, it makes it seem less real. I have no idea what brand my sink is.
