Wow! Embellished by Karen Glista seems interesting. It reminds me of the chronicles of Narnia. I'm also in love with the book cover.
I'm definitely interested. Thanks for the review.

Wonderful review! This novel sounds fantastic in both senses of the word. I love fantasy novels, and the romance is a plus!

You get to read some books and feel like they are real. Embellished,though a fantasy, sure seems like one going by the review and the little I was able to glean from Amazon.

Thanks for the review. I love a book that has great character development and this one sounds like it does from the basis of your review. It is too bad that the grammatical errors in order to keep it from getting a perfect 4 stars.

This sounds like a very interesting read. It seems to have a 'Wizard of Oz' twist to it. Thank you for this review!

Neat review! I can imagine Bekka's elation, discovering herself in perfect health as against marfans syndrome she previously suffered. Glad that the romantic scenes aren't explicit romps indeed. The heads up concerning those grammatical errors will make them a bit more tolerable till changes are effected. Great job.

It's a nice review. It portrays the details about the characters and described them very well. The content if the story and have deeply took notes on best way to write the review. It also takes into consideration in describing the thoughts on a well loved story. It shows the important genres of the book which includes fantasy and adventure. All in all a job well done!

Latest Review: Creating Literary Stories: A Fiction Writer's Guide by William H. Coles

Post by dragonet07 »

This novel sounds very interesting, especially the idea of them being pulled into the world of the game. I'm hesitant since I'm not currently looking for a romance-heavy fantasy novel but this review does indicate that even the sex scenes regard the question of the existence of true love, so I still may give it a chance. Thank you for the helpful review.

Thanks for the review - it gives a very good idea of the book. My teen daughter would be interested in a book about people in a video game but it sounds a bit beyond her 13 years. I will keep it in mind for her though.

I've seen some animes with this type of plot, characters that are moved from reality to the fantasy world of an online game. To be able to do things you normally cannot do, it sure sounds engaging. I'm also attracted by the fact the author avoided using cliché routes. It's a shame the book has grammar mistakes and it couldn't obtain the 4 stars. Anyways, I'll definitively read this book. Thanks for the great review!
