Je ne sais pas si je dois donner ce livre là 4 ou 5 étoiles. D'une part, il y a des parties où le livre était très rapide avec la narration. Mais d'autre part, j'ai adoré l'histoire et la fin de ce livre. Alors, le plus sage serait de lui donner 4.5 étoiles.
the ending was a disappointment :( Okay maybe the movie trailer ruined it for me but even if I didn't see it , it was still a disappointment :(
The ending of book one and two were the same. The best ending was in book three.
But still I liked the book , it was so awesome and creative even if stephanie's writing style is annoying sometimes. But her description is so thorough and accurate and it makes you imagine very clearly the scene and the people in question.
Okay, even if the series is not very good, it still hurts knowing that I finished it :( secret, I even cried in one place
I now understand the whole feelings people get when they finish a series no matter how good or bad it is ... This is the first time I finish a series :(
Just the idea that I won't have the chance to read about these characters and about this plot again is... hard :(
Okay, maybe I am too emotional
Anyway, the ending is still a disappointment :p
4.5 stars, going on five.
The only problem I had with this book is the obvious point, the one you can't ignore, and that it is translated. AND DO YOU KNOW HOW MUCH I HATE TRANSLATED WORKS? Well, now you do. Even so, I found the translation to be better than I thought.
But other than that, the book was perfect. It is sooooo smart I can't even begin to think how brilliant the story teller is.
Loved it!
But the problem is, people told me it is mind blowing repeatedly that, like Sheldon From the Big Bang Theory puts it “My mind was pre-blown” :(
Fucking hopes up.
But I enjoyed this. This was something you can't live your reading life without at least having a simple glimpse at.
I recommend.
The men in this book are savages. Women are treated equal to animals. It is very sexist, and sadist in a way. People were tortured in ways I never thought I could think about, so much injustice, desperation, pain and incest. Oh, it was an awful experience.
But yet, there was something different in this book. No, it did not hook me up like it should have. but the story was perfect. Martin built an excellent plot. Everything fits in together. The characters. The vocab. It was as if I was living through everything, and that is why I gave it 4 stars. I could visualize everything. of course, there were a lot of boring parts, but I think they were necessary to perfect everything. I doubted more than one time that one human being was able to come up with this masterpiece. It was real, but in a made up land.
Taken from the acknowledgement: The devil is in the details, they say. A book this size has a lot of devils, any one of which will bite you if you don't watch out. Fortunately, I know a lot of angels.
This book was a long tiring journey. I don't regret reading, but I am not looking forward to book two either. I really have conflicting emotions about this book. But it deserves the 4 stars. Martin did an amazing job. The writing style. The scenes. The imagination. Amazing. This story could not have been written better (maybe it would have with a bit less sexism but I am trying - very hard - to be flexible... okay, I can't be flexible about these subjects... but i think I can bend [ and I say this through gritted teeth ] my rules to fit this book )
