The language reminded me of the stylization used in Buffy and Angel, which I thought was pretty fun. And I loved that the relationship that seemed ooky turned out to be ooky and that the love interest wasn't everything and the girls were single but happy.Livianiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10479932701589363306noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1265120169320473011.post-86861881625671013112013-01-25T07:47:24.538-05:002013-01-25T07:47:24.538-05:00I decided almost immediatly not to consider this h...I decided almost immediatly not to consider this historical fiction, so that I wouldn't be bothered!

I like your take on the language as "playful use of modern turns of phrase" because the same phrases were hitting me like a slap in the face and I had to put the book down for the evening. I'm liking everything else, so maybe that will help me with the language!Ms. Yinglinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17805324364289597178noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1265120169320473011.post-29280302581943638562013-01-24T23:37:23.169-05:002013-01-24T23:37:23.169-05:00I absolutely adored this one.
