Elijah's Mermaid
It is ok. That is all I have to say. 2.5 is the highest I would give, but Mal was boring. The prose dragged. The book tried to be everything. But it was a bit higgledy piggeldy.
Why did I rate this a 4/5 initially? I must have lost my mind because rereading it, this book is terrible and trying so hard to be a YA book, when really it's Airport disposable reading, that you just pick up on your outgoing flight.
Right I dragged myself half way through this book and realised life is too short. It just is too short Rick Riordan is not a good writer. Maybe if I was a child I'd like it better.
Last time I'm buying a book based on glowing reviews. I didn't really buy it but got it for Christmas, I felt really disappointed by it.The writing is mediocre at best.
The Great Gatsby
I loved this book. There is just something about the fact Daisy no matter what Gatsby does, will never ever leave Tom. Old Money and new money don't mix, they are different beasts. Tom and Daisy are just people who play games and get thrills out of tormenting one another. They destroy others but they will never one another.
The thrill is just too much.
I say this book has great characterisations with flaws. Gatsby idolises Daisy and it's his downfall.
Dead Radiance (Valkyrie, #1)
you can tell it's self published as the writing is clunky and needs to be reigned in.There's also need for major editing. Characterisation is not tight at all.
