A review by ari_reading_
Fable, by Adrienne Young
1.0
Skipped to the end after page 20.
Still counting it as a challenge book since I read the last 2 pages.
This book fell short because, from the very first page, it bores you. I expected it to be complex, it was simple but simple fantasy stories can be good, this one wasn't. The worldbuilding was next to none and I cared not a bit about any of the characters. I was disappointed because I was expecting a bada** main female lead. The author needs to follow every english teacher's advice and "show not tell"
We are told that the main character is special, yeah yeah we get it but where's the proof.
We are told not shown and I feel like the English teachers of the world right now are face palming or shaking their heads in dismay
