Review: The Beast

The Beast by J.R. Ward
My rating: 2 of 5 stars

It's probably not always a great idea to just keep writing books in a series, they eventually get too boring. The Black Dagger Brotherhood is a good example. I keep reading it out of habit, but despite being a fun at the beginning, I can't say I enjoy the newest installments. I already skipped one of the previous books (and I didn't notice that I lost much in terms of story line). This one I was reading forever (a little bit over a year to be exact), which reflects my enthusiasm. I even managed to read the next one, before finishing The Beast. So yeah, maybe it's time for me to stop, no more Brothers...

By the way, if you pay attention, you can notice that Mrs. Ward picks up new words between writing books and then, in love with the new additions to her vocabulary, uses them excessively in her next book. This time the word is 'woodwork'.
