A review by amalia1985
The Girl at the Window by Rowan Coleman
1.0
To me, this seemed no better than the average melodramatic romance -which I avoid like the plague- fully equipped with one-dimensional characters and atrocious dialogue. Tru and Will are the most boring mother-son figures you’ll ever come across. But these aren’t the major issues. What made this a nightmare was the writer’s audacity to include Emily Brontë and Wuthering Heights in her soap-opera/cry-me-a-river abomination down to a bad mimicking of names and themes. Have some common decency, writer….
It was heroic on my part that I was able to reach the 50% mark before I toss this one into oblivion. I don’t rate a book I don’t finish but this had a plotline related to the book I have been obsessed with all my life. Bear with me… Readers who are not as strict and obnoxious as I am will probably enjoy this much, much more.
Many thanks to Penguin Random House and NetGalley for the ARC in exchange for an honest review.
