I have read this before....or I have tried to read this before. A few years back I was all about the paranormal romance, and I was specific. So specific in fact that not many novels would to. I was full of it at the time and not easily satisfied. I would get a few chapters in, and if the book didn't...

"My name is Gin, and I kill people." Well, isn't that a wonderful way of getting your reader's attention? I mean seriously. So what if Gin was in an asylum at the time she said it? She meant every word of it. Gin's an assassin known as The Spider because her rune is in the shape of a spider-- a...
