cattaimb 's review for:
Rival Darling
by Alexandra Moody
The first 70% of the book was great, after that was extremely difficult to read and not to hate Violet. She doesn’t have a personality and was always described by the same two things: her hair and her eyes. The secondary characters were a bit more down to earth but their contributions were so poor along the story that their personalities didn’t matter at all.
Although the fact that Reed helped his sister with figure skating was cute, it wasn’t necessary a whole performance in the middle of an important game. It is not realistic the that an athlete would throw away his whole effort and future career just for a girl he barely know, that doesn’t even work as a resource to emphasise how much he likes her.
Regarding Violet’s attitude, firstly she was this kind of “different girl” who doesn’t trust the rumours because she “knows” Reed Darling. Even though at the begging it was nice how she makes jokes about the stories strangers made up, at the end, she was like all the other students.
