“Life is beautiful–short and fleeting, but beautiful.”
NEW to me author and books. I received a PR package from The Boom Factory and author, such a beautiful paperback. I also happen to have made the teasers for this book prior to coming out, which now I can’t wait to read it.
I was taken back at how beautiful the writing in this was, I really enjoyed that part and kept me going. The over all outlook style is not in my path but I was happy to give it a full go and enjoyed moments and then also did not enjoy others. 50/50 for me on this one, I was torn from the easy writing and words flow to the characters that kind of I was on the bench of. There was a lot going on where it took you from one direction to the other, I guess my issue with this personally was the character styles…I didn’t really enjoy the heroine fully at all times. That said of course this is all base don my personal experience with the book, characters and story, not reflect on a negative pattern of the actual book. It might be something that you enjoy the most, but it was just really hard to place the ROMANCE part for me in all of this. I couldn’t connect and of course you know that’s hard to put things into perspective and words. Glad I gave it a go and wish the author the best.
