  • Mixed Feelings. Good book, but would’ve preferred more mature dialogue.

    By Ashlan
    Likes: I enjoyed the whole concept and it was nice to read a story that wasn’t just vampires, wolves, etc. and brought in a very modern and realistic world as we know it today. I liked references to movies, shows, people that were in the present time period. There were some twists and turns that kept the book exciting. The story line was pretty good. Some of the characters were great. I loved Peanut the most. Dislikes: I’ve read her other books and LOVED them. However, I didn’t love that the term “Harbringer” was used a lot in both of her series. It seemed uncreative to use the term in both, especially when it’s a huge part of both stories. Also, as much as I like some of the characters in this book, it all seemed really immature. I know the main character is 19 (I think), but her banter and conversation with others feels very childish and very Gilmore girls-fast (that could just be how I read it though). Her humor is funny at times, but I struggled, as an adult, to read her thoughts. Yet I wouldn’t say that this is a book I would recommend for a 17-18 year old. There was also A LOT of inner monologue. So much so that I found myself skipping around just to get through a conversation. I know that was part of her personality as an over-thinker, but it was overkill. If the dialogue and personality were a little more mature, I think the book would’ve been excellent.
