Now I'll probably give in next time I see it. But you need to mark your books the way you do your movies. I need simple yes/no's, 10/1's, etc. ;) I almost bought this last time.

Just put spoiler with the html brackets to open the tag. so angle bracket spoiler close angle bracket. Then all the spoiler info and to close the tag put /spoiler inside the brackets.

But yeah, bang! was a bit easy. But then I thought because of the age he was at and where he was going that in some ways the bang! made sense. Like how he was when he was sick - he finally needed someone. He was scared and alone. I actually had nightmares about the gym sequence last night. It was mainly because I was migrainous and a bit crazed (I freaked out when Beloved turned out the light and got scared of the DARK for fuck's sake!) but I think her description was just so visual that I couldn't get it out of my head. It was so calculated and cold - the marksman on high, the targets running and hiding. Interesting point about Eva's name. Cain/Kevin. Hmmm.

I also thought the <spoiler>ending was a bit quick almost as though it was, hmm, Eva needs closure, lets have her work through her issues in these letters, and than bang! Kev begins to realise what an idiot he has been</spoiler> I wonder was the name Eva chosen because of its similarities to Eve?
