If you're reading my breakdown and think, "Wow, her summary of this story doesn't make any sense," that's because the actual story doesn't make a lot of sense. Images will be used to break up the monotony. So, let me break this down as briefly as I can for you. Also, just in case you missed it before, the characters are fucking stupid. So much time is dedicated to trying to be fucking clever that nothing of consequence happens. Plot urgency is non-existent, and character growth falls by the wayside. Her craft breaks down in the plotting and characterization. Sentences are written with clarity, punctuation is used correctly, and words are actually spelled right. The most frustrating part about Dare's writing is that she can write. And just like the cretins on reality TV, I didn't give a flying freak about the book's characters because they're so. Reading it was like watching one of those reality shows where stupid people talk about their private lives and do nothing. Our mistake, I guess.Ī Lady of Persuasion isn't much of a story. We went into it for the LULZ and suffered instead, the blood of bad romance staining our hands forevermore. Well, I suppose a portion of the blame can fall on my GR buddy Karla for this buddy read. There are no words to describe what a tedious experience reading this book was.
