softstarrynights's review against another edition
2.0
Hmmm...
I received this book for free from a Goodreads giveaway and was looking forward to reading it especially as it wasn't to long. My copy is singed and features notes and doodles by the author. It appeared to be the perfect quick read book. As indicated by the low star rating of 2/5 I didn't enjoy it, and I'm not even sure why so I'll just run through some main points.
First Reason: The Character
I just couldn't relate to Trent one iota and most of the time I couldn't understand his actions at all, which I found very strange in a story told in first person. I didn't feel like there was any character development or that he learned anything. This rings true for all of the characters and if I'm honest it was all a bit stereotypical for me
Second Reason: Lack of Explanations
I don't know if it was just me but I felt like the whole native reservation thing wasn't done well enough. As someone with no prior knowlage whatsoever about it I was intrigued to if ad out more but unfortunately that didn't happen. It just seemed a little half-baked to me
Third Reason: Plot
What was to story? Well I have no idea, all I got out of it was him getting with Pippa even though she's a little strange and it was completely obvious from the blurb. What was with the hot and cold vibe I was getting? Also talk about slow and it didn't even build up to anything, what's that all about?
