Rendition In Favor Of Books Dark Heart Forever (Dark Heart #1)

Sadly, Dark Heart Forever is one of those 'the cover is better than the actual prose' novels. I was enchanted by the gorgeous art and really excited to read the book as I've had plot bunnies about a similar idea bouncing round my head for a few years now but sadly I was left feeling very disappointed. I had a lot of trouble with the narrative because it jumps into the story without a back story at all. I expected some flesh to Luca's storyline (how long had Jane been having these dreams? What happened in them?) but there was not really anything at all. Particularly at the beginning of the novel, the narrative just left me confused. Luca started appearing in her real life almost instantly but we never actually saw him visit her in her dreams, so I was confused as to if he was in her real life and no one could see him or if she was in a dream when she saw him. There was no back story on Jane either, aside from the apparently fundamental 'I'm a freak' trap that so many YA authors fall into. Usually I can somewhat go along with it but I found it startlingly painful to digest in Dark Heart Forever. Jane mentions several times outright that she is a 'freak' and that she was terribly bullied, but aside from the fact that she doesn't dress well, I didn't really see why she would be picked on. However, people do strange things, so perhaps she was bullied simply for being herself, but I felt like the point was overdone. It was typical, overused case of the female lead not being pretty or special, but the male lead still falls in love with her because actually, she is beautiful. This leads me to a gripe I had with Jane: at least twice her "long glossy hair" was mentioned as her redeeming factor. For someone who claims to not care much for her appearance, her vanity is obvious here. Moving on from Jane, I give a little credit to Lee Monroe; the Evan twist was interesting. Unfortunately, I had already guessed it. I couldn't believe these two boys were suddenly 'in love' with her when she had just met them both and no one had ever liked her before. Luca was about the only character I liked. He seemed kind and gentle, but brave when it was necessary. Lowe's character was just not well done; he seemed very evil, only to suddenly change his mind at the end. Other characters flitted in and out without much story, investigation or purpose. I firmly believe that every character must serve some kind of purpose if they are important enough to be mentioned several times. The vampires were almost redundant. I wish there had been more support behind all of the characters. They had no depth and seemed almost there to fill a gap. Just some other little things that bothered me: the scene in which they have lunch. Evan is offered a beer, which he declines, because he is going to teach Jane how to drive. He says that the two he has already drunk are his limit. Firstly, Jane is sixteen, so it's illegal for her to learn how to drive until she is seventeen (I'm assuming the novel is set in England because of the spelling of Mum and the author is English, but I can't actually remember if it is ever mentioned) but her parents are okay with that. Secondly, Evan has already had two beers (drinking while driving, again, illegal, and even if he is under the limit, dangerous) and he is going to teach Jane to drive on a mountainside. They are okay with that, too. In fact, they even find it agreeable, rewarding him a with winning smiles when he says he won't drink another. It also seemed like Jane used both of the boys when the other wasn't around. She also accepted Luca's world without a second thought, barely questioning it, which did not seem realistic at all. Frankly, this book feels to me as if it is just another novel designed to fill the Twilight gap, which saddens me greatly. As a devot YA fiction fan (specifically paranormal as well) I'm looking for something different. Something with strong characters, development and something original. I'm aware that it is impossible to go not cover what has already been breeched: wolves, alternate universes, fallen angels ect. but Dark Heart Forever was a real disappointment. I was also sad to see that it was an English author, as I think most YA fiction is published by American authors and a brilliant British paranormal YA series is needed.

Evaluation Of Books Dark Heart Forever (Dark Heart #1)
Hmmm. Where to start.Well its your usual story about a girl who has to choose between two guys and navigate a strange new world, which for the most part is nothing original. The characters are incredibly underdeveloped, and the plot far more so. It felt rushed, and the developments by the end were hard to stomach.Some of the chapters were a bit ridiculous. 'Why yes daughter, of course your 18 year old boyfriend can teach you to drive unlwafully ON A MOUNTAIN. Even if your father just crashed the

CRAP. This book brought me to tears, especially in the end. So, Evan Forest [the real one] was strangled by Raphael [a wolf, who was Gabriel's son (Anna's teenage fling)]. Raphael thought his father died/disappeared because of Anna, who was Jane's mother. He did his revenge by pretending he liked Jane and something something. I can't explain everything. That's just a part of it. If you read this book, well, prepare to wear your seat belts. It's a very EPIC book. It's a bundle of everything,

I really don't like to post negative comments about a book, especially since I always admire the creativity to write in the first place and then the determination to have it published. The central plot to this book is very interesting: A girl who sleepwalks and in doing so discovers a door to another world through her dreams. But I found it all very confusing. I don't think the author manages to explain the details of the plot very well and I was always left wondering "what and how we got here?"

A thrilling love story about a man of mystery.As an outsider,Jane is not used to being loved or being in love.Although,when she meets Evan and Luca,she finds it pretty overwhelming.Evan is a good lucking,popular sort of guy.however Luca is a loyal friend.Nearing the end of this book connections are made and Evan is not who he is said to have been.Experiencing strange events such as; having a car crash,finding Nissilum,camping with Evan and attending a grand ball,Jane is to busy to fully

1.5 A lot of people recommended this "amazing" book to me and I'm sorry to say that I am very disappointed. I didn't understand the book and I found that at the start of the book it jumps straight to the story there is no back story :(

Wow. So good. Was not expecting that.My sister had got it from the library and I didn't have anything else to read, so I thought "what the hell!"It was amazing. This is now my favourite book of a lifetime! So thrilling amd unexpected.Read read read! Can't wait to read the second one! :)Until next time :)
