Review: A Decent YA Book
Rating: 4 out of 5
Date: 05 17, 2013
I must admit that I don't normally read YA books so my perceptions are a bit tainted. I love the cover (kudos to the artist). The  story, on the other hand, I would not say that I loved. I like the concept of it but the delivery could use more polish.The characters were very well written and that is what kept me interested in the story for the most part. What bothered me the most was the fact that the story climaxed about two-thirds of the way through with no clear, decisive defeat of the enemy. This is fine if you are planning a sequel but not as a standalone. I kept waiting for the second attack...which never came.Overall, the story left me unsatisfied. There are too many unanswered questions in my mind. I hope the author will do a follow-up story to address these issues because I would definitely read it to satisfy my curiosity.I gave it four stars...partly for the cover art and the rest was for the characters and concept.
