Reborn: Myra by Michelle Fox
2.0
I found like book while scanning through paranormal authors on Amazon. I decided to check it out and was thoroughly unimpressed.
The book started off with me having high hopes, but soon had me cringing. First, a girl who's needing money decides to be a blood courtesan, what's not to like? A lot apparently. The story is rushed and parts that need to be explained aren't while those that don't need to be explained are. Myra, our leading lady, didn't always use her brain and made me cringe. Kristos helped her and was brains and smarts at every turn. Until the part where she's all alone and she has to do it on her own, and even then she waits too long to escape and gets caught again. It takes Kristos to save her another time. In the end, it seems they live happily ever after but it leaves a lot to the imagination and doesn't explain things as well as I'd like.
I didn't feel there were enough substantial characters or enough explaining. I feel disengaged and couldn't relate to Myra in the least.
Maybe I'm picky but there's just some things I like when I read a book. I would chance reading this author again because I like to give more than one chance to an author. Maybe I'll be impressed with the next book I read.
