A review by believedcrazy
Siege by Sarah Mussi

3.0

I wanted to like this a lot more than I did, and while it did stay with me for quite a while after I finished it, it just didn't grip me the way I wanted it to.

For a start this book seemed unrealistic to me, I'm not talking about the plot

scarily enough the government stuff was actually believable to me

but more like the characters reactions to things and how they behaved. I didn't like the main character Leah at all. Her relationship with her brother didn't make sense and wasn't believable, and her constantly mentioning him was irritating. She kept saying how much she hated him and didn't want anything to do with him, yet all she wanted to do was talk about him.

I think the issues and the messages in this book are important, school shootings are an issue right now and it's terrifying, it's just a shame they weren't delivered better.
