And since I usually like men who are a little more alpha male than Seth is (don't get me wrong, I like sensitive men, too, but Seth is overall a little too passive for my taste), it all adds up to a conflicted reading experience for me, since I do like Georgie a lot. I'm also not as invested in the mythology of this particular world or in any of the other characters. So the whole set-up is engineered in a way that just isn't going to make me very comfortable. But that's precisely the problem I've been having here-Georgina is hurt by the need-to-sleep-with-random-guys/no-consummation-with-human Seth scenario, and so is he. The thing is, I'm pretty live and let live, so it doesn't really faze me if people want to live their lives in open relationships or want to frolic with stuffed animals or whatever, just so long as it's all above board and no one's getting hurt. (Yeah, I'm a little slow on the uptake.) It's simply this: I believe in fidelity. I'm a fan of both Richelle Mead's Vampire Academy and Dark Swan series, but for some reason I've had a hard time connecting with this one, and it wasn't until Book 4 that I realized what was bothering me. I think I've finally figured out why I'm not that into this series.
