A review by mdzreynolds
The Casquette Girls by Alys Arden

2.0

Phew. I don’t even know where to start with this one. This book was sooo all over the place. Sophisticated writing turned into juvenile writing at the drop of a hat. Storyline had sooo much potential but just wasn’t executed to satisfaction. So much fluff and filler. The “big reveal” meant to drive the plot forward wasn’t until 250 pages in, meaning those first 250 pages were all filler and fluff. I almost DNF’ed so many times. The characters weren’t always very likable, the mythology was not well constructed, and I got whiplash so many times with the pace of the story. Honestly so disappointed by what could have been that this got an extra star just for potential.
