Review: It had its moments

I so wanted to enjoy this book, but I didn't. I just found Penelope to be so annoying. She had the makings of a strong, bad-ass heroine, but just when I thought she was going to stand strong, she'd crumble. She just fell short of her promise as a character and I never got past it.The premise of the novel was intriguing, but it just didn't work for me. It wasn't until I got to the end of the book and discovered there was a sequel that I realized why I didn't enjoy it ... I didn't connect with the characters and I wasn't invested in them or the rest of their story.That said, while I probably won't read the sequel, I will give Ms Edwards another read. I enjoyed her writing style and the book did have some really good moments, but they were not enough for me to fully enjoy it. I look forward to reading something else by her.
