Talk:Fletcher/@comment-104.33.85.157-20160323030337

Hey guys!

Carli here. I TOTALLY forgot to give my reviews of the Alphas series, since some of you guys messaged me to give one...

Also I go under an anonymous user, since I lost my password. Typical Carli, haha...

Anyways, I have to say that although Lisi Harrison's books are pretty addicting and good read-agains, I have to say they're from a very cliche and unrealistic perspective. I mean, (SPOILER ALERT) how much is the ideal that the whole thing is a TV show an old chestnut? Been there, done that, Lisi. And you can do better-having Charlie work in the White House? Have Fletcher come begging for Allie to take him back, especially after all of her publi humiliation live? Some things fit together, like the need for the cameras to stay on all the time, but other than that there were a whole lot of loose ends that needed to be tied together. It's harsh, but true. Alphas Wiki fans, don't get me wrong, I know this is pretty harsh-and kind of a spur of the moment thing considering I've writtten most of the articles on ehre- but you guys asked me to give a ''review. ''I mena, hello, I'm not going to advertise the book on a banner over your ads and scream at you to buy it. Its definitely not worth the money, and if it wasn't for the Alphas uniform the whole thing would circulate around clothes (remember back in the The Clique-which was a better book, BTW-that she would describe and rate their outifts on every. other. page? God, that made me feel like a grandma. Harsh, but true-I don't even remember most of one of those books.) I have to say, Harrison has great beginnings-both the CLique book 1-4 and the first book of Alphas are absolute must reads. But the plot eventually dulls, and all you're hanging on to in the end is clever comebacks, long clothes descriptions, and that one backstabbing friend. In fact, not one of her series ends in a not-cliche ending-I mena, how typical is it for Massie to move to London, and the strereotypes? Please. I'm half English, and I can assure you there are no peddlers on the streets. May I add that at the time, England's economy was as worse, if not more than America's, so why they move to England (and in a castle, achem) confuses me. (sorry for the critiquing-I know somebody's going to hate me for it) I've read Pretenders, which was pretty compelling and in a nice concept. (Harrison has quite the imagination, if it weren't that having a 'leaker of secrets' has been more over and done than the steak grilling in my dad's barbecue rn- have Gossip Girl and PLL meant nothing to you guys?) But Lisi makes for good reads, so being along some ice cream and dig into the Alpha series. I know, I'm shunning them for being too unrealistic and annoyingly descriptive, but isn't that what makes pretty good books?

Trust me. I don't remotely like the series, but nevertheless am an avid Wiki contributor and make posts for every book I've laid my eyes on. No, i don't like the series. But yes, I appreciate them with Rocky Road.

Kisses!
