alexandra_medley1995 's review for:

The Legend of Meneka by Kritika H. Rao

DID NOT FINISH: 32%

---

I am not going to give this a star rating since I did not finish the book. I only got to page 116 and up until that point the book is SLUGGISH with a capital S. I could not get into the book, perhaps it was all the telling and not showing. Everything was explained out and I understand that aspect since not everyone knows the legends that these characters are based off of. But someone should have really deep dove into editing. I would lose track of what I was reading and have to go back and read it twice and STILL not understand what is going on. Page 116 lost me entirely, I don't care to read about current events in a fantasy book. 

Daevabad Series and Kaikeyi are what I would recommend if you felt this book failed you too.
