Me too on all accounts. <br /><br />My husband wanted to know why I was cracking up for the few days it took me to read.<br /><br />Carriger is definitely a very smart, creative writer, and Orbit did a brilliant job marketing it. <br /><br />I noted you rated it 5. I&#39;ve been second guessing my 4 stars...<br /><br />Have a great Sunday! :)Shellie (Layers of Thought)http://www.blogger.com/profile/10360453947198770223noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3206685128986486929.post-33939506357962108032010-03-07T00:27:05.460-07:002010-03-07T00:27:05.460-07:00Shellie,<br />normally I don&#39;t read urban fantasy but Soulless took my heart by storm.

It is so different from RELEASE. Its funny instead of scary.<br /><br />They did an amazing job marketing this book. <br /><br />And don&#39;t let the steam punk thing deter you it doesn&#39;t play a huge amount in the story. It does look to be a big interest right now - I also have a feeling it may get bigger. I think two author&#39;s on the Nebula ballot have steam punk works there.<br /><br />Whats really great about this particular book is that is available at libraries now... so no need to purchase it. Although copies of it are going for very cheap on Amazon. <br /><br />You can connect with Gail on Goodreads she&#39;s in my friend list. :)Shellie (Layers of Thought)http://www.blogger.com/profile/10360453947198770223noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3206685128986486929.post-68528747760995861482010-02-26T12:31:50.311-07:002010-02-26T12:31:50.311-07:00This has been on my &#39;to read&#39; list for a while; I keep getting sidetracked from it. While I&#39;m not certain I&#39;d enjoy alternate reality/steampunk, the author&#39;s style does seem to be amazingly witty and funny. Thanks for reviewing this one, Shellie -- I&#39;ll make an effor to read this next!Nicole_Hadawayhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01766896378494375531noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3206685128986486929.post-45799682970932551622010-02-26T10:32:28.411-07:002010-02-26T10:32:28.411-07:00Misty -<br />Thanks - we totally agreed on this book it was a well needed fun one for me.<br /><br />You bet - You do some fantastic reviews!Shellie (Layers of Thought)http://www.blogger.com/profile/10360453947198770223noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3206685128986486929.post-36674497266099719802010-02-26T10:27:28.587-07:002010-02-26T10:27:28.587-07:00Great review; I agree completely.
