“His Little Flower” Review

I selected an untitled book because I couldn’t find His Little Flower in the Goodreads portal, but I’m glad I ended up giving it a try—for the most part. The story was engaging and had me hooked, but it wasn’t without its flaws. While the plot felt original, it was a bit predictable at times. The typos? Absolutely distracting. Even rereading sections didn’t help provide context—I had to skip entire blocks of dialogue and narration because I couldn’t make sense of the text.

On top of that, there were several inconsistencies, making it clear the author could’ve used a second pair of eyes for editing. Still, the story had its moments, and I had a decent time with it overall. Worth a read if you can tolerate the chaos!
