I liked Bride because she was a heroine with many insecurities that she had to "get over" in order to have what she deserved. I did like the idea of a plus sized heroine, but then I like characters to be different. I think that there are too many skinny white girls in romance novels as it is. I don't think that Bride was as strong as many of the women portrayed in the other novels, but she was unique. The Katagaria have to "settle" for each other because they are predestined to be together so I find it interesting to see how the relationship evolves around the situation. -- RBL Dark Hunter Board

In reply to: Lina 's message, "Another question... Why did you like Bride from "Night Play?" Was it the fact, that SK dared to present us with a plus-sized heroine? Did you like her because she was your basic good girl who deserved a HEA?" on 13:32:00 11/21/05 Mon

[> I liked Bride too. First because she was plus sized, against the norm, Also, yeah, she might have come across as a waffle, but thats WHY I liked her. It was more real. There ARE women like that...it seemed more real to me. That even with those hang-ups and insecurities..someone sees beyond that, to the love and passion stored up inside and knows that once tapped, it will be Thiers..in this case, Vane's. She's HIS woman. The treasure inside her is HIS. And Bride is more than happy to BE his. To me, it's a very sexy relationship. But, that's just my opinion. -- Michele N, 05:32:39 11/22/05 Tue [1]
