Read 2 times. Last read January 21, 2015 to January 24, 2015.
Initial Thoughts: In the aftermath/reading hangover that was Iced, I wondered how I would react to Burned. You see, I love this world. I've read all most of the Highlander series and I've enjoyed watching Mac undergo her various changes in the Fever series. The reviews were coming in for Burned, and they were almost overwhelmingly negative. When I picked up the book, I was worried that I would be disappointed. Well, I am not. Reading the books in this series makes me want to plan a trip to Dublin. I want to see all the places that were mentioned in the books. I love the world and I love the characters, well, most of them.
So, if you are a fan of the series, go ahead and read Burned. You know you want to.
I'll need some more time to digest and to write a proper review.

"I just wanted to register my excitement for this book. We've waited so long to read this and after the debacle that was Iced, I am hoping that this will be good. Book - I have a lot of expectations."

"I've conveniently forgotten some details of the previous book - *cough - Dani - cough* I also forgot about the Silvers and where they took you: "In those meandering halls, you could live any reality you chose, die on the floor believing you were living a genuine, happy life somewhere real. The place is a consummate mind-fuck.""

I'd say skip Iced, but you kind of need it to move on to Burned. Burned is much, much better than Iced. I'm still thinking that Shadowfever is my favorite.
Iced made me divorce KMM. Our relationship is over. I will continue to reread the first five Fever books, but she botched it baaaaad with Iced. I don't want a repeat. I AM happy to see you enjoyed it!!
Don't give it up. Just pretend that Iced never happened.
Meh. I'm just too irritated after Iced, and I think anything more I read from her would consist of me looking for the flaws. I can't believe what she did to this series. Ugh.
Oh well. I'm sure that there are other wonderful books out there waiting for you to read. I'm just curious to see where she's going with this series so I'll keep on reading.
Ya, I do have my curiosities as well. I'm not taking them off my TBR for now. I'm going to see how people feel after they're all out, and then maybe I'll dive in. And hopefully by that point the recent burn of Iced will have worn off. ;0) I'll be watching your reviews as they come out. :0)
