Good Bad Girl by Alice Feeney
0.0
⭐️: I hate this book, this is probably a zero and if I could unread it, I would.
I didn’t believe that there would be a day when I wouldn’t enjoy an Alice Feeney book but here we are. This book was so bad that the only reason I pressured myself into finishing it was that Feeney wrote it but it didn’t do me any good.
First of all, there was supposedly so character building happening, but the characters ended up feeling so flat and ultimately you could not relate or care about them. I didn’t really care what happened, why and how. So here goes the main thing keeping you on reading. Moreover, this is supposed to be a character driven book, so there is minimal plot, it’s mostly characters thoughts and (not so useful) memories.
Secondly, I hate Edith with a burning passion. No further comment.
Lastly, there were some major plot holes that were never addressed, something I am not use to by Feeney. While the book was dragging up until 75%, in the end everything comes together very fast and easily and then it’s done.
Overall, the book whole boils down to unlikeable and boring characters, a confusing plot and loads of unanswered questions.
