This wasn't so great. For about the first 40% of the novel I was thinking it may be a better version of The Testing trilogy. Then it ended up being much worse than that. There were so many directions this story could have taken, the way it went was pretty disappointing. I did appreciate that Ale...
Not anywhere near as good as The Hunger Games and the ending was a bit too happily ever after, with lots of love and feelings floating around for my taste but other wise not bad. The main character was a bit iffy, but the rest where pretty great. Even the depraved insane's one's where well written. ...
I got this novel for three reasons:- A kick ass cover.- An Interesting Plot.- The good reviews from a lot of people.The book has a great potential, but bad execution, and every time while i am reading it i go "oh here it's, the story is picking up ". I get slap in the face with stupid romance, and i...
The Forsaken by Lisa M. Stasse My boyfriend said something to me yesterday. He said, "I think that most people in our generation are now actually looking forward to a dystopian future." My response? "I think that means we need to reevaluate what dystopian means." And it's true. We've becom...
I'm torn about whether or not to read this. The cover is gorgeous and the summary sounds so promising ... yet I'm seeing a lot of negative reviews. So, acck! I don't know, maybe I'll just stare at the cover but not actually read it.
Oh, The Uprising is such a mess, it really is. Once I opened the novel, I was hurled into paragraph after paragraph of info-dumping about what happened in the first book. Not a good way to try to impress me, novel. The most important events in this book are very predictable, with only one detail, I ...
1.5 stars.The title of this book is one of the biggest hints at how OBVIOUS and CLICHÉ it is. The Uprising looked good, I can tell you that – I generated a liking for the UK cover. After my disappointment in The Forsaken with the romance, the calculated plot, and the rigid writing, I had expected th...
2.5 stars.Review originally posted at Book Probe Reviews.If any book has “Hotter than the Hunger Games” on the cover or something similar – I WILL NOT FALL FOR IT! Well, to be honest, I didn’t fall for it. When I was sent a copy for review last year it had an intriguing ring to it with the criminal ...
Last year, I read and loved The Forsaken! (But please don't click that link, because my review was ugh, like all my 2012 reviews.) But when I got the copy of The Uprising...well, I sort of forgot most everything that happened in The Forsaken. And by then, I'd given my copy away. So you can bet I was...
Despite my best efforts to try to read The Uprising, I truly can't do it. It's tedious, I'm not a fan of the characters, and I really have no interest in seeing what happens next. I expected this to be a stronger book than The Forsaken, but I have been let down. Note: I have only read part of The Up...
