Title: Terrible. Just Terrible.
Product review: I am probably the biggest Francesca Lia Block fan you can find. I am always gushing about her books to all my friends and recomending her to everyone. So, you can imagine my dissapointment when I discovered the utter tripe that is Ecstasia and it's companion book Primavera. These books went out of print for a reason. Because they were horrible. What I have always loved about Block's books is her ability to blend fantasy with reality, and her awe-inspiring descriptive language. These two books have removed reality altogether, and what we are left with is overdone fluff with too much metaphor and no substance. Comparing these books to masterpieces like Violet and Claire, Echo or the Dangerous Angles series is like comparing a chocolate chip cookie to eating handfuls of sugar out of the bag.
