Right of Way was one I was looking forward to, but I've seen reviews that convince me that the story would frustrate me. The fact that Jace is forgettable is another strike against it. Great honest reviews, Farah. :)Rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16682335183798720529noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2329593457481155810.post-75098108618622596252013-08-02T21:45:58.228-04:002013-08-02T21:45:58.228-04:00Thanks for sharing your view on these two books!

I don't think I'll pick this up. As for Right of Way, I am SUPER excited for it. I just love cute contemporaries like this one, and even though Jace is not memorable I can't wait to read it, and see what I think of it. Glad you enjoyed it overall, though! Fantastic reviews, Farah! :D<br /><br />~ Maida<br /><a href="http://loveaffairwithabookreviews.blogspot.ca/" rel="nofollow">Literary Love Affair</a> <br />MåїÐ»-(¯`v´¯)-»https://www.blogger.com/profile/17761335857561590565noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2329593457481155810.post-59032979972762230962013-08-01T13:02:30.239-04:002013-08-01T13:02:30.239-04:00I love Lisa and Laura, so that's too bad WAR w...I love Lisa and Laura, so that's too bad WAR wasn't so great.
