taylorinthesun 's review for:
This Golden Flame
by Emily Victoria
Very weak 2.
I went into this book not knowing anything about it except what the summary said... but the summary basically said everything. There are better reviews of this book here so I won't go into it that much, but basically: everything felt weak and flat. I didn't care about anyone in this book. Not that the characters are unlovable, they're just.... not lovable. They're like the plot, weak and flat and oh so boring. And they do not progress AT ALL. The villain was a joke. I wrote better villains at 10 years old. Jerry is a better villain to Tom than the magistrate.
And also. Gods. The last 100 pages were The Worst 100 pages I've ever read. Had I not read the 350 pages before the last 30 pages, I would have simply given up reading. This was horrendous.
I thought of adding a .5 star for the aroace character. But then I thought of how during the entire book, her thought process was "I don't know what it's like. I will never know what it's like. *watches two people kiss*." So no. I am not adding a .5 star.
