A review by kdecker1
The Becoming by Nora Roberts

adventurous emotional mysterious

3.0

I gave this 3 stars because it absolutely has potential to be amazing. The characters are spot on and interesting (mostly, but I will get to that later). The universe is awesome and makes me want to visit it. But, it is so boring and long to read. I really wanted to like it because of the above mentioned areas, but I found myself forcing myself to finish every single chapter just because I wanted to finish the story and know the ending, and not because it was a particularly interesting or enjoyable read. It just seemed long and drawn out, and then the actual action with the battle at the end was so short lived that I kind of felt dooped into reading so much long boring storyline for such a short lived satisfaction at the end. Like it was literally a couple of pages at the end of the book after anticipating it for hundreds of pages. I know I will not finish this series. I gave it a try for two books but I am done.
