Oliver Marshall wants to change the world. What he doesn’t realize is that the world has changed him instead.<\/p>\n

It’s a good story, but I fully admit that Jane’s sister, Emily, had a story I liked better, because Emily saves herself.<\/p>\n

And because of this line:<\/p>\n

Fairfield shrunk away from the anger in Anjan\u2019s voice. \u201cI meant well,\u201d he whispered. <\/p>\n

Anjan leaned forward across the desk until he was an inch away from the other man. \u201cMean better.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

It’s fun, but really I read it so I can read the next book.
