A review by bookdrunkinlove
The Beginning: Marked and Betrayed, by P.C. Cast, Kristin Cast

1.0

I have never disliked a protagonist so much. It was almost painful to read from her pov. Between the slut shaming and "I'm not like other girls" BS. There was just nothing redeemable about her or her character.

The one boy that isn't throwing himself at her feet fits every teenage boy gay stereotype there could possibly be. It's almost as if the authors had never actually met a person that wasn't heterosexual in their lives, and just drew inspiration from every stereotype they saw on sex and the city. It was just so bad.

This was an interesting idea, just not executed well.
