Amaurys Hitzköpfige Rebellin (2010) - Plot & Excerpts

While this story lacked the humour of book one, it was still a fun little read. (And saying it wasn't as funny as Samson's Lovely Mortal doesn't mean there were no funny bit. There were, just not as many.)Like the first book, this one had a wonderfully strong, sexually aware female lead. In fact, my absolute favourite part of this book was Folsom's willingness to hand some of the power normally held exclusive to PNR male leads to Nina. She tied Amaury up, made sexual demands, tormented him with sex, etc. All acts that the more powerful of a couple usually perpetrate on the weaker. I REALLY enjoyed seeing the roles reversed. And, for the record, Amaury never came across as weak as a result of Nina's strength. It was worth reading just for that.I do have to go on a little personal rant here, in case others feel the same way. [Some find this a mild spoiler, BTW.] The easy use of rape as a plot device, which has become far too offhand and common in women's literature as a whole (so this isn't a criticism levelled against Ms. Folsom's writing alone), felt tawdry at best. Especially when paired with abuse at the hands of multiple foster fathers. After more than a few years working in Children's Social Services I can say from experience that there are far more wonderful guardians than not. But this book makes foster father feel synonymous with sexual predator...cheap and overused in general. It's the best I can say for it.Now, the book also played the 'it's so new and amazing' card pretty heavily, but it wasn't as gag-inducing as in book one. I did find the ending predictable, but despite there being a lot of sex (what do you expect, really?) there was a plot. It was followable and it did stand on it's own. So, on to book three. This was much better than I anticipated. I thought book 1 was a three star read, although plenty of my friends really liked it. This book appealed to me a lot more. I liked the H and his struggles, but really I liked the majority of the interactions that he had with the h. The plot was simple and without suspense so the book really depended on the characters being interesting and their narrative was. 3.5 stars.
