But when it's done very, very well I can root for it. <br /><br />Cress and Thorne are just spectacular. I didn't really love Scarlet and Wolf though because I think Wolf was just a little bit too bad-boy-I-could-lose-it-and-kill-you-at-any-moment type of thing. <br /><br />AND YES. You have to watch the Christmas special, it was pretty great.

When the evil dude with the big gun is ...THANK YOU. When the evil dude with the big gun is coming for you, it's not a good time to start kissing. AND YES. THAT WAS LIKE MY FAVOURITE SCENE, DESPITE MY PREVIOUS SENTENCE. I JUST. WHAT EVEN. THAT SCENE. <3 <3 <3 PERFECTION. THAT WAS SO PERFECTLY THORNE. <br /><br />Sorry. <br /><br />I'm so glad I'm not the only one! Like I've mentioned before (several times), I don't do much romance then when The Lunar Chronicles comes out I just collapse into a puddle of mushy goo. Oh, and when Kai kissed Cinder. Dude, that moment was so good. <br /><br />I didn't really love Scarlet and Wolf? I don't know, I think it was just the bad boy dangerous thing that I didn't like and couldn't get behind. *shrugs*<br /><br />LOVE John and Mary. I don't think I could do Sherlock and Molly just yet. Sherlock has some growing up to do before that happens because I don't want Molly to get hurt. When Sherlock grows up a little bit more, then I'll ship it.<br /><br />Dragonskin Slippers was awesome. I re-read the series almost every year and it's just as good each time. It's dragons and princes and crazy princesses and invasions and dresses and sewing and stained glass windows and slippers and fire and destruction and murder. (AKA perfection.) <br /><br />Thank you very much, and thanks for commenting!Victoria Jacksonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15036742461356732142noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5902120443627257365.post-10936974586545402972016-04-30T11:06:10.793+10:002016-04-30T11:06:10.793+10:00Oh yes!

I'm not much into romance either. Mos...Oh, yes! I'm not much into romance either. Most of the time I'm rolling my eyes thinking, "Come on, guys. They're shooting at you! And you're just giving each other gooey eyes!?" But when Thorne kissed Cress on that rooftop battle, it was just so very Thorne! *fangirl noises* When it comes to the Lunar Chronicles this suppressed hopeless romantic inside me comes out to breath and is like "THEY FINALLY KISSED! Gosh, Kai, took you long enough." While normally kissing scenes just make me feel awkward. And then there is Scarlet and Wolf, who fit almost everything I don't like in romances, but they so perfect for each other!<br /><br />John and Mary! Yes, yes. *nods* Love that quote by of way. :) And can we please have Sherlock and Molly. One day. Please?! Everybody wants it to happen; we're counting on you fourth season. <br /><br />Dragonskin Slippers sounds really good. I'll look it up on goodreads. <br /><br />Awesome post!a.n.g.https://www.blogger.com/profile/03667996517318905980noreply@blogger.com
