Frostfire by Jamie Smith

2.0

"Frostfire" is just not a book that I can enjoy. The beginning was super boring and I couldn't get myself invested in the story until about page 160. I actually fell asleep a couple of times while reading this book. Despite this, once the story began to pick up, the world that Sabira dwells in was actually quite unique. I wish it would have drawn me in more, but I understand why people enjoyed it (the mythology and folk lore of the world were intriguing and unique, just not well developed in my opinion). I also thought that "Frostfire" was terribly predictable.

Personally, I don't love survival stories, so that made the early parts of the book drag on and on. The start of this book was all background info that could have been better implemented as flashbacks as she was wandering around on the mountain by herself, not really doing anything.

Overall, this book just bored me, so I couldn't get into it. I hope that you guys have better luck with it if you decide to pick it up.
