I want more...

This was just what I needed! This book has really important themes for growing young girls, and it's done in such a creative way. I have always love reading fantasy, but the genre hasn't always created characters, that as a young girl, I could look up to. Representation matters!

Promising idea but falls flat

This book was pretty painful to get trough. First off it's a little weird that you're placed into the main character's shoes & having the narrator read "you" did this or that. Secondly the story is slow even through fight scenes or some major plot's reviled. Thirdly there's so much left unfinished at the end I honestly though the download wasn't working.

I wanted to give this the benefit of the doubt but there were a number of times I nearly gave up. Sadly this wasn't worth the credit I spent on it.

Was Not Prepared

There are many things that I liked and disliked. This book made me very uncomfortable. The sex was explicit and very pornographic for a YA book. Maybe that makes me old fashion but this book crosses the line for me. I enjoyed the story. I felt like the feminist perspective was a little too pushy, yet there were messages I completely agree with. If I had known how explicit it was and the language I would've kindly passed.
