It was a nice interesting story. Kept my interest throughout and of ourse had a happy ending without being too predictable. It is clean.
Childish writing
Typical
The base story line was good but the writing could be cleaned up. The pace was very slow and there wasn’t enough dedicated to how the heroes went from like to love, it seemed like it happened overnight. I liked the premise, though.
Bland. I saw that this was a novella (short story), but was disappointed that there was no conclusion. IMO, authors, please don’t bother making a book available to readers if it’s incomplete. This does not motivate to purchase subsequent parts/chapters.
Started this book multiple times, did not hold my interest past the first few pages and ended up deleting because it annoyed me.
The main character was very juvenile. Also too predictable. The characters did not seem to be well developed. Ok for a quick and easy read.
I had high expectations for this book. Read the first few chapters and deleted it thought it was rubbish. Was hoping for a good historical novel instead it was wildly historically inaccurate.
Short
Just not my style….
Predictable
Not a favorite, hard to get into, hard to keep an interest,
Nice, predictable story; easy read on about a 5th grade level. The intro to the 2nd book at the end did make me want to read the next in the series.
Written like reading a list of facts.
Author didn’t provide a satisfactory ending to the book. Reader needs to find the ending possibly in the next book in the series.
I am disappointed in books that leave the story unfinished.
It was a predictable romance but unique in its way. The first of four I believe. I am looking forward to reading the others.
This was okay. It’s difficult to explain how it could have been better. Instead of just being told how the characters feel, I want to feel it with them. It was like looking in the window instead of being inside the room. I did like the flashback chapters to give a sense of the long history between Janie and Matt. There was a lot left for the reader to have to fill in on their own, where there was only a cursory description of an emotional encounter. There were no deep, intense, intimate interactions. Even though there was kissing, it seemed distant, and glossed over. Still, the story kept me interested enough to finish, but even the slight “cliff-hanger” ending probably won’t be enough to make me buy the next book.
It was okay, but the writing didn’t pull me in to want to keep reading. The outline was good but needed more interest in the writing. Very stiff
It didn’t finish the story. The friends in the beginning didn’t interact after the story started.
