I really loved this book, and the others that have followed it (I'm reading Radiant Shadows right now, actually), and I feel that it has a lot of good, positive messages about staying true to yourself and your beliefs. It's a bit akward, yes, that Keenan's actually Ash's dad... ok, a lot awkward, but the series is still fantastic. Oh, and Keenan and Donia, Niall and Irial, Seth and Aislinn, and Devlin and Ani are THE BEST.
Great book, but as CSM said there is definetly some iffy content.
Let me start out by saying that this book is definetly my favorite that i've read all school year(maybe even ever).
The content isn't really that bad.
But there is some mention of sex, as in talking a little about STDs and virginity. But the only part that was that bad was the mention of oral sex, it wasn't in there directly, but you'd after to be a pretty dumb person not to get what their doing. Wasn't in any detail though, and it was only mention in a few tiny paragraphs.
Violence is there too, which isn't suprising in these modern faerie tales, considering most faeries are evil, it's not too gruesome but is definetly pretty bed.
Language is not such a big deal, couple curse words here in there, but it's not like the book is filled with it.
There's some drinking, but it's only a little, except for when the main character gets drunk on faery wine, but other than that it's really not too bad.
I think it's definetly a good book for a mature reader, but 13+ seems reasonable.
Haha the author stole my name so I expected the book to be amazing.
It was pretty good... I am yet to fail in falling in love with one of the characters. Seth is so.. wow! I loved him :D This is a book on Faeries. I love Faeries. The book was a little slow at the beginning but it was good. There ARE mentions of sex and STDs though. You might want to keep that in mind, although they aren't bad. One make-out, but no details. Just a little kissing. Um... I didn't actually realize that about Aislinns dad till I read it in another review... what a spoiler! Trust me though, if your a girl, you will be crazy over Seth. Thats not bad, he's a great character. Very loving. There's a bunch of great suprises. I love the ending. You should definitly check out the book.
I loved it!
It is MUCH MUCH better than twilight, and will leave readers yearning for more. Be careful though - the next book in the series talks about sex much more than this one. Almost every other page mentions it. Don't read Ink Exchange (the second) unless you are 14+. (oops on me)
This book was awesome! I never wanted the book to end. But there was some cussing and some talk about sex. So i think that 14 and older are the most appropriate ages.
:)
Well, the plot was good but one too many "f" words. Another thing is that the Summer King ends up really being her dad. (Has an affair with her mom who later commits suicide to escape becoming a summer girl.) I think 14+ would have been better.
When i first started the book i didn't know what to expect. Once i got to the second chapter i couldn't put it down. I think Aislinn and Seth make the cutest couple. I definitely recommend this book if you like fantasy and romance.
The book was ok, but I personally prefer the book Ink Exchange. I think Aislinn is a bit spoiled, especially in Fragile Eternity. I stopped reading Fragile Eternity before I finished because Aislinn was making me sick.
