A review by ceena
Select by Marit Weisenberg
Did not finish book.
*I received this book through Netgalley in exchange for an honest review*
DNF @ 7%
By 7% we should know what species or whatever the main character is and who the "outside world" means. Yet, I'm still so confused by these big ticket items, while I know little details for sure... since they've been repeated. Family issues, Mean step-mother, and "special" girl who is an outcast -- these things I understand, but I know nothing else.
Also, setting. Yes, the book takes place in Texas, but is it OUR reality? is this in the future?
I know 7% is too early to give up on a book, but there was ample opportunity to explain something about the book. Honestly, the whole first scene took place in mist in my mind, because I had no idea why they were where they were or anything else.
While I am one who likes minimal description usually, this is just no description, replaced with empty words.
