Reviews

[Chivon · Rating 2 out of 5]

I liked the storyline of the book before I even read it. I thought it would be an interesting love story. When I started reading, I got bored. I was bored until half way through the story. The characters were likeable, however I don't feel as though I got enough background information. The story was written in a fantasy, traditional romance type that really didn't fit the modernness of the storyline. By the end it started to pick up and turned out to be ok. I might even read the other books about her sisters, hoping that the author got better with each book.
