Although this is only the fifth book in the series, I'm starting to notice a pattern; some of the books are about action, and some are about, well, feelings. . . specifically Gaia and Sam's profound love for one another. Puke.

I'm sorry, that's not a very literate response, but I just can't handle chapter after chapter about how much they love each other after just a few meetings. They don't know a thing about each other. Heather might be "unfriendly" but at least she and Sam have had an entire conversation. Unfortunately, Kiss has more than its fair share of Gaia and Sam passages, and they quickly grow tiresome.

With that said, I continue to read these books because I really like the books that focus on action. I also enjoy the secondary characters like Ed and Mary. Frankly I'll keep reading just to see Ella get what's coming to her someday. I also really like Gaia (when she's not droning on about Sam), so I'll be back for the next edition.

But I might start skipping the mushy stuff.
