madeleine_wilks's review against another edition
I read 70 pages of The Almost Moon and I can't do this anymore. The list is going up.
I understand- characters and situations don't have to be likable for a story to be well crafted or intriguing. But besides the fact that I don't read past PG-13, even if all that didn't bother me, the whole point is shock value and making the main character as sympathizable yet demented as physically possible. It isn't well written, there is no depth, there is no real plot beyond shock value, there's no point or explanation to anything she does besides that her mom was selfish, it's just... it just sucks on all the levels it can suck on.
I bought it at a library book sale and I'm tempted to drop it in the drop box. I don't want to own this book.
Don't read it please. For your own good. Bad writing, no plot, and just... no. No.
