I adored the slow pace and descriptive voice that she created. I truly felt transported into Deerskin's world and mourned her loss while rooting for her coming into herself. <br /><br />My next stop was Sunshine. The cover took my breath away and Gaiman gave his kudos so I figured it was a no brainer. Unfortunately I was less than pleased. I still adored the writing but I HATED the plotline. The opening was promising but then it fell flat. <br /><br />I don't know if Pegasus is the next one that I should try or not. I'm much more interested in her on fantasy works rather than her retellings (although I guess Deerskin is loosely a retelling, huh?)christinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16749333368560606659noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6543330341390707771.post-2178620281738590142010-12-21T08:08:23.373-05:002010-12-21T08:08:23.373-05:00Usually I'd snap this up (I love slower burnin...Usually I'd snap this up (I love slower burning books that are normally more rewarding for the time that you spend getting into them) but I've read a couple of books this year that have incomplete endings and I'm not sure I can bear another one..maybe I'll tackle the McKinley back catalogue and then get to this one by the time a sequel is out...Lit Addicted Brithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15307643382274474774noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6543330341390707771.post-49860308891054232862010-12-21T00:59:10.243-05:002010-12-21T00:59:10.243-05:00I'm not really into fantasy but when I saw the...I'm not really into fantasy but when I saw the cover of this book I was immediately intrigued. I'm glad to hear you weren't disappointed and I'm definitely going to add this to my list. I pretty excited because I've wanted to read something more fantastical lately!Ashhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00878749520906342274noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6543330341390707771.post-90537978305440688042010-12-20T11:33:31.310-05:002010-12-20T11:33:31.310-05:00O wow.
