Rating: 2 out of 5

This book features the fountain which I assume is from The Earls Design of Love which I read a couple of days ago, Alicia and her friends come across a mysterious fountain which wants each of them to make a wish, which they do out loud, three hundred years in the future, a future where women are a rarity and Calor is wishing on the same fountain. The rest as they say is history, it could have been a cute albeit silly tale but even taking into account how far-fetched it is, and yes in fairness you know before reading it's a time travel romance but most of it was just silly, it's hard to give examples without giving anything away but well ... her friends ... It should have have better, or is it just me am I expecting too much after all it is a free read.I'm wondering again if it's me, I mean surely it must be, this book has I UK review and 3 US ones and they're all 5 star yet I struggled to give it 2 and I don't think I was being unfair. I know I'm just feeling sorry for myself since so many times recently I've picked up a '5 star' book to settle back and enjoy to find it mediocre at best, now I know we all look for different things in the books we read and we all have our own rating system and there have been several times in the past when my review has been the complete opposite to one already there and to a certain degree that's to be expected, as I've said we all like different things but as of late I find so many books with all 5 star reviews and I wonder why my opinion these days seems so different to so many others.
