Spellbinder by Melanie Rawn


Ok, since I gave up on Mad Ship I decided to read Spellbinder by Melanie Rawn. I have looked at this book for several years probably and haven't read it becuase it is a fantasy set in modern New York and I usually prefer my fanatasy to be completely unreal. But I really like Melanie Rawn and since it appears that she isn't writing anything new in the near future. I decided to try it anyways. I started it while taking a nice hot bath and so far I really like it. Nothing deep or anything, just escapist fun. Just what I like in my fiction books.

Gave up on Mad Ship

Unsual for me since I really feel strongly about finishing books that I start but I guess as I get older I have decided that if I really don't enjoy the book why keep reading? There are many other books out there.

With this book I just couldn't get into the story or the characters. None of them were sympathetic at all and I really need at least on character that I could like.
