She is one of my favorite writters. She gives you a good sence of being there and what is happening. On of the books that I like is Thite (I think that is how it is spelled)

I've only ever read Tithe, but I really liked it. Isn't the second one called Valiant? Anyway, I want to read that one too. 3nodding

Well, I know I've read one of her books, but don't remember the title. What books has she written? biggrin

I read both books, but I preferred the second one, Valiant. It was the whole beauty-and-the-beast thing. I'm a sucker for sappy romances like that. x)

You'll like the second one. Although I prefer Tithe. Roiben is such a hottie.

I read Valiant. It was kind of cool. The main girl put a bit of a twist of the dashing masculine ideal for a hero. I thought it was kind of funny how she touched moral issues--drugs, making good decisions, being brave. It was just a little too "convenient" and "neatly packaged."

Do you "get" me? *raises eyebrow*

I too enjoyed Tithe. I want to read Valiant though. I love her description of the fairy's.

I read Tithe first, and I thought that it was alright. Valiant is my absolute favorite...probably because I also love "Beauty and the Beast" plots, and I could invision it better. I heard a new novel, a sequel to Tithe, is coming out soon.

yh, the whole drugs aspect makes it very relatable to real life. it's almost like one of those "don't do drugs" books but the writing story line and faeries make it better. plus ravus sounds sooooooo cool.

yh, i understand what you mean, but i still loved it razz sometimes i feel as if holly is being indulgent about her work, there a some sentences which really don't add to the book in ANY way, so why are they still there? but i love reading them anyway
