Fill in the blank: "Barnabas had an extremely strange reaction after he'd sampled the ________ that Sebastian had offered him!!"

Doesn't Antoinette do that to Barnabas in The Salem Branch?

([pointing-up]  I have no idea - I gave up on Lara's writing after she seemingly endlessly hammered her readers over the head with how manipulated/innocent Angelique really was in Angelique's Descent!!  Talk about justifying to the extreme your character's actions!!  ::))

My "favorite" part of Angelique's Descent was her description of Barnabas, a description that would have been far more accurate for someone like Antonio Banderas. Barnabas, Banderas, maybe she just got the two of them confused. [ghost_rolleyes]

I didn't like the first book at all. I was expecting a horror novel and what she delivered was a bodice ripper. I enjoyed the second book a lot more. The Antoinette character is apparently based on Lara's own experiences as a commune dwelling hippie. The character was kind of a wannabe folk singer. I enjoyed the book a lot more when I pictured Antoinette as Phoebe Buffay. Smelly vat, smelly bat, what are they feeding you? [ghost_rolleyes]

(Maybe I should give it a try, then...)

The humor was most likely unintentional.

([pointing-up]  I'm sure that's the truth - but that might make it all the more fun to read!!  [b003])

I think that you'll enjoy it more if you approach it with limited expectations. Is Lara likely to win the Nobel prize for literature? Definitely not. Is she a better writer than Marilyn Ross? Kinda.
