oooh, you're right! She even discussed the POV changes and everything!

OKAY PEOPLE OF THE WORLD one of the commenters appeared to say that the series got rec'd at COMIC CON someone find out a) if this is true b) who rec'd and c) what the rec was GO GO GO.

Ooh! That IS a great review. Just enough squeeage about Gen's awesomeness without giving anything away. XD I may have to direct some friends to the interview because I am horrible about telling people WHY I think they should read such and such book, and I would probably inadvertently spoil something. Thanks for sharing the link!

That was great. Spread the love, I say, spread the love!

And I got butterflies when I read the name Eugenides. I am such a hopeless fangirl.

Great review, I found it on Twitter. It may have marginally persuaded one of my friends who quite halfway through TT to pick it up again, so yay!

Definitely a great review. She really nails it. My favorite is how she talks about the amazing romance in book 3. I've said over and over that it's one of the most romantic books I've ever read. And it's not even a romance.

Nice that the reviewer protects the surprises. I'm really getting sick of reviewers blurting out spoilers left and right with no warning. Grr. Thumbs up for this one. :D

That was a simply beautiful review, I agree, I didn't think it was possible to review without spoiling the series but somehow she managed it.

Just reading that makes me want to reread the series all over again.

Haha, her comments about POV really do summarize the series.

Book 1: Gen seems like a whiny brat, but then secretly turns out to be awesome!
Book 2: Gen is still a whiny brat, but is even more awesome!
Book 3: We all know by now that Gen is awesome, so we wait around for every else to figure out that he's not just a whiny brat.
