***A bitter, begrudging 3.5***Well, okay. I was excited until the last... maybe 40 pages. Star was the big bad, Jo was racing to fight her off. Star had David, which was heartbreaking. Star also had Lewis, which was... well, I still don't understand how. Because Star's power was broken, right? How in hell was she able to hold Lewis? Marion was on Jo's tail to OKC...... and let's pause here for a minute to say, seriously, fuck those guys. Marion and her cronies, Paul, the whole lot of Wardens.I'll try to write this without any spoilers. I struggled with this book at first. The beginning was confusing and the author dolled out information one grain at a time. I was extremely frustrated and considered quitting the book more than once. But I forced myself to continue and I wasn't disappointed. I would have given this 5 stars except for my frustrations with the beginning. My only other (slight) complaint would have to do with the weather descriptions. Some were boring and some were so
Ill Wind starts off with a thunderous bang!Joanne Baldwin, is one of the Weather Wardens and she's running for her life, being accused of murder and all. Nothing but her and her sweet midnight-blue '71 Mustang-Delilah- in search for the only man she can think of who can save her life. Only he's in more hot water then she is.This is one road-trip-straight-to-hell that is not like any other as Joanne fights to save her life, the people that she's meet on the way, while trying to figure out who she
How to Write a Novel that Kriz1818 Will Dislike. Intensely.Seat belts, please.If there's one thing I don't like, it's a clue-resistant protagonist. If there's another thing I don't like, it's a protagonist whose identity is defined by (a) an unusual thing that she likes (in this case, hot rods), (b) an ordinary thing that she likes (in this case, clothes), and (c) her sex life.I can't even add (d) her education and career, because quite frankly, this chick doesn't seem to have put any effort
Not really a 4 star book because it's just another paranormal, kick-ass chick with an attitude & a big problem who keeps making dumb decisions to prove how thick-headed she can be & still manage to get by. I'm afraid I've about reached my limit with the character type, though. So, I'm bumping it 1 star because I think my ennui is driving my reflex rating down & the story had its moments. The magic was quite different. I don't know enough about the weather to know if all the science
3.5 People talk about nature as a mother, but to me she's always been Medea, ready and willing to slaughter her children.This unusual Urban Fantasy has a modern day world where there are special people who possess the power to control the elements. They work together to make sure the weather never gets too out of control, to where Mother Nature isnt a trustworthy beast that regulates on her own; instead she poses a threat of breaking apart our world any time, so subtle control is always needed
Original Review @ Naomis Reading Palace4.5 StarsI was so excited to get into Ill Wind, because I was honestly looking for a good urban fantasy and really, the books I've read lately have been just ok. I needed something with a good storyline that would leave me thinking about it while I wasn't reading, and always excited to come back to it. Ill Wind certainly delivered and I cannot wait to read more.Joanna was in a pickle right from the opening chapters. I soon realised she trusted the wrong
