The Hunt by Andrew Fukuda
3.0
I wanted to like this book so badly.
Every fibre of my being was making me sit there and get through it because despite my total lack of interest in vampire novels, and my sudden tiredness with the dystopia style, it was such an incredibly interesting concept that could have gone so far.
And yet, I couldn't get into it. And those words sound as bitter in my mouth as I type them. Despite the interesting plot, it just wasn't there. The plot twists, everything coming together was so good but yet so predictable, the action scenes were choppy and sometimes confusing. But I just couldn't bring my self to full heartedly love this book as I wanted to. Hopefully the sequel is better and helps push the story forward, however I don't think it'll be on my TBR for a while yet.
I'd give it 2 and a half really, but I'll bump it up to 3 because of my want to love it.
