A review by berrynee
A Wilderness of Stars by Shea Ernshaw
Did not finish book.
Thank you to NetGalley and Simon and Schuster Children's Publishing for providing me with an ARC of this book in exchange for an honest review.
1⭐️
my first one star rating this year :/
never did i ever think that i was going to be this disappointed by this book. my hopes and enthusiasm for it were really high and in the end i dnf’d it at 35% and skimmed through the rest just to see if i missed something good (i did not).
what irritated me the most was the slow pace and not enough information about what was going on. the author did more telling than showing in my opinion and i couldn’t take it anymore.
the plot was boring (i almost fell asleep honestly), the characters were one dimensional and confusing.
the book had potential if we consider the summary but the execution was horrible and i wouldn’t recommend it to anyone since it’s just a waste of time.
