A well written fanfic in which Castiel is tasked with looking after Sam and Dean from the start thus changing future events.

I thought I would do someting special the day I got 500 followers, but as usual too much around me and now I have passed the number. But I shouldn't be sad about that, I've got a bunch new friends.

 

 

Sp let's do the introduction again instead. Well my name is Magdalena and I'm Swedish and right now I was thinking about buying a book that I really want, but I know what I have too much to read as it is so it's just going to add more books to my my tbr pile (mountain)...

 

 

As you can see I'm a bookaholic bookhoarder with a tendency to spend my money on buying books. That's not the worse part. How can't it now be the worse part you wonder?

 

 

I also am a member at both NetGalley and Edelweiss (warning enter the sites at your own risk). That means I can request books, get them and review them. I have shamelessly abused both sites and now I have quite a lot to read.

 

 

And it get's even worse. Yes it does. I also do blog tours, and I have a problem with saying no. On the plus side, I have started to say no to authors asking me to review there books. I do have to work also you know...

 

 

Anyway. Welcome to a bookaholics blogs, to a Mad Mad World!

What a Horrifying and Disturbing Story! I have been forcefully defiled. Mind Raped!

I admit it does have some entertainment value, but the munching on humans killed me. I mean I love the angst and liked the wicked pet training, but.... PLEASE! DO NOT EAT PEOPLE! Argh!

Humans as main course on the dining table of Gods. *dying* Gods hunting humans as food, even the children aren't safe. *dies in agony* Keeping humans as livestock for their juicy meat. *am so dead* Some of luckier ones are kept as household slaves, and the luckiest are those pretty ones which the Gods kept as eye-candies aka pets. The pets aren't exactly safe from ending up on the table as well. Da fuq!

How I wish this story could just focus on the pet training and leave out the grisly stuff. Each time I think of it... I.... *pukes everywhere* The slaughter of innocents both angers and sickens me so much I could feel my soul burning at the atrocities happening at every turn of the story. The author is sure brave and daring but too over-the-top with the horror aspect, it squicked me out even knowing she might be trying to deliver her message on animal abuse and to encourage vegetarianism.

The thing is, this story is utterly disturbing and horrifying as the amount of outright cannibalism overshadowed the pet training aspect eventhough petplay should be the main focus of this story as per suggested by its title and blurb. I kept on reading this morbid tale because I couldn't stop until I find out what would happen to Dean at the end.

WARNING: You really can't unseen what you have seen. For sure this is NOT for the faint-of-heart unless you are into gore and cannibalism. Beware of being eaten alive while kicking and screaming even your soul aren't spared. If you could curb your curiosity, I would advice you to stay away from this. The blurb didn't have any warning on the extreme cannibalism. I did blame myself for not checking out the story tags throughly before diving into it.

I am pretty sure that title and blurb would potentially leads unsuspecting readers who are looking forward to some petplay fun with added bonus of the famous Castiel-Dean pairing into the darkest void of evil and then gets drown in human misery so great one would felt scarred for life; speaking from the view of a traumatized reader. I have no way out now, it's too late for me. Go safe yourself!

Da fuq I've just read. @_@;
I need fluff pronto!

THE RATING
I am giving this a 2 stars not entirely because of the disturbing nature of the in-depth cannibalism, it is also due to the quality of the writing itself. There are parts where the plots fails and the characters has OOC moments here and there. I am also deducting points for not staying focus on the promised petplay theme. To be clear, I did appreciate the parts on the pet training and the melding of multiple mythologies with modern religion.

To put it in other words, this story is as entertaining as an intense nightmare you fought to wake up from.

Review 6******This is the second story in the God Blessed The Broken Road series. I loved this story!David is still hurting from the loss of his sister, Mariza. His empathy is his greatest asset, although he doesn't see it. He is kind, generous and loving. However, it's not until he finds himself in a new city, and struggling to find a job, that he realises that God has bigger plans for him.I fell in love with this series when I read the first book, God Blessed The Broken Road - Mariza. This book is so full of emotion; I shed a lot of tears in places. There are some wonderful characters in this book too. This book may mention God, but it is not a preachy book. This story is David's journey to find himself and to help others. It's about making mistakes, finding forgiveness, love, hope and joy. It is not a very long story, but it has left a lasting impression on me.Crystal Cattabrigga has written an emotive story that touched me deeply. I'm now looking forward to continuing David's journey. I highly recommend this book, although you will need tissues! - Lynn Worton (WaAR)
