A review by femmenova
Firekeeper's Daughter by Angeline Boulley
Did not finish book. Stopped at 11%.
I might pick this up in the future as I decided to read via the e-reader route and not the physical book. The font size is too small the mass paperback edition I borrowed.
However, did not finish it because the main protagonist's constant pining for the handsome but has a scar on the face boy (and the constant questioning of how he got the scar with her friends) honestly threw the entire vibe of the book off. I understand it's for the teens because the romance feels a little like reading a John Green romance novel. I'm also confused by the pacing of the book as to when the actual plot develops instead of just getting to know this mysterious handsome hockey player with the scar (something im only repeating because they emphasised that a lot!).
