Customer Reviews
Just… Okay
The story itself is fairly decent and original. I think the plot loses itself at times. There’s no real clear reasoning for why the story’s events are happening, and the half way theories the story does provide doesn’t seem to go anywhere. I appreciated the non-linear perspective switching between chapters, however. It’s far from best seller worthy, but it’s not a painful read if you have a couple hours to kill.
Also, two last notes:
1. Get an editor to proofread your stories,
2. The author really focuses on certain words and reuses them a lot in lieu of description
Great
The first dozen chapters or so were very confusing. But once the introduction was over, everything fell into place. This book was fantastic. Made me have vivid thoughts while reading. Amazing.
Enjoyable story but…
All and all the book was pretty good. The author definitely has promise, but is anyone proofreading or editing the book? Too many grammatical errors and typos. If those things can be resolved, the story would be even more enjoyable.
