Sara @ A Gingerly Review

Fascinating

Revisado: 06-19-20

<i>*I received a copy of this book in exchange for my honest review*</i>

This was a lot of fun to read. I enjoyed the premise, the magic, the mythology, and the suspense. I really enjoyed the addition of celtic and demigods into the story - what an interesting twist!

The characters were well developed and deeply flawed, which gave them a believable quality. The world building was top notch and rich with texture.

I cannot wait to find out what happens next.

Shallow all around

Revisado: 01-21-19

There was not one thing about this story that I enjoyed. The MC's voice came across painfully immature and I could not stop rolling my eyes every time she came across like a spoiled brat, which was nearly the entire book. The narrator's voice did not match the character voice so that also caused me to strongly dislike this story. No world building, no character arc, and no real plot.

Do yourself a favor - skip this. The execution of the story fell very short of the intended goal.

This was not what I thought it would be

Revisado: 11-20-18

There was a lot in the premise about Natalie being a larger size but it hardly played a true part in this story. There was a lot of self fat shaming that I couldn't look past. Natalie was super quick to judge other girls immediately by their weight yet was overly offended if/when it was done to her. She was also quick to hate on the other interns who got into the program based on how much money their parents had. She never gave them a chance, only assumed they were horrid people. I could not get behind that.

Pretty Little Liars meets Gilmore Girls

This was such a fun and #enjoyable read. The wit, snark, and clever dialogue had me #laughing at times. This was a quick read but it was one I won't soon forget. It was not the murder/mystery I have come to know and love from Barnes but it was #heartfelt. #southernbelles #clever #tagsgiving #sweepstakes

Not for me

Revisado: 06-22-18

The blurb is what made me interested in this story, but the delivery is what caused me to DNF. The narrator was wrong, the story was choppy & scattered, nothing was clearly thought out. This was terrible and I'm sorry I used a credit on it.

Hard pass

Revisado: 08-17-17

I wish I hadn't fallen for the hype. This was such a toxic relationship story that had me rolling my eyes the last half of the book. I'm so disappointed.

Not worth the time

Revisado: 08-11-17

What a struggle! I loved the first story, yet after reading book 2, I can't remember why I liked the characters to begin with. Far too much time passes with nothing happening. The action scenes were few and far between. There is now love geometry since too many people are in instalove with too many other people. This felt like a contemporary read, not a fantasy read. I will not be continuing the series.

Meh

Revisado: 07-25-17

I wanted more out of this story. It did not hit my feels or have me crying on my Kool-aid. I thought Aaron's character was alright but not an all time favorite for me. The ending felt rushed and left me unsatisfied.

Underwhelmed

I wanted more from this. It was predicted and left me wanting. Fast read though.
