This one was a very peculiar book. I went into in expecting a story about magic and witches, but I would actually describe it as being more like science-fiction, with sci-fi magic.After graduating high school, Jessie Ralle goes on a trip to Las Vegas with some friends. The most important thing she has to worry about is being in the same car with her ex-boyfriend, Jimmy. Once in Las Vegas, she is seduced by the magical nightlife of drinking, gambling, and sex. At a casino, she meets a handsomeI'll preface this review by saying that I've not previously read any Pike so I'll be making no comparisons to his other work.When presented the opportunity to listen to this novel, I jumped:) I'd been seeing the book around the blogosphere a bit and had heard great things about Pike. Plus...Witches...how could I resist. I was not disappointed.Pike builds an incredibly interesting, albeit complicated, world that we ever so slowly gain more insight and more knowledge of as the book progresses.
I won this in a First Reads Giveaway. I didn't like this book at all. Somehow despite it's drawbacks and flaws, I was hooked in from like page 10 to around 250. Then it quickly waned and it was a struggle to finish. I don't even know why I was hooked. It was mostly before the complete WTF started setting in but I had problems believing the story throughout. There's potential but ultimately I felt it failed. I'm definitely not pleased with it and am not going to continue the series. I might check
erm. excuse me as I go bang my head against my bedroom door. Quoted from the book itself, "This is a mind-fuck" (274)But it isn't either. It's just so damn confusing. Complicated is good, but when there are HUMONGOUS holes it just becomes confusing. And Jessica, Jessie whatever the fuck her name sometimes morphs into different characters. Its hard to describe, but it's like she's five different people, and not in the whole two worlds paralleling eachother kind of way. Like Pike forgot who he
