A review by kuyemura
Archetype by M.D. Waters

5.0

What really struck me about this story was how unique and original it was. I honestly did not know what would happen in the next chapter, much less the whole book, and the epilogue just sorta left me dazed in a "WHAAAA?????" mood.
The best thing is that M.D. Waters left me really conflicted about what I wanted. I still am actually. Normally I latch on to who the author wants you to like right away, and when the character vacillates about who they should end up with I just get upset because it's SO DANG OBVIOUS who they are meant to be with. But I understand Emma's confusion here, and I can't wait to find out what she thinks when she find out that that one guy who I won't name is still around!!! Ahh, so exciting.
Some readers might find the beginning slow, especially as you don't get the full story of Emma's past until you're more than 3/4 of the way through. Normally, I'm not a patient person, but the author teases you with bits and pieces of what really happened that are just tantalizing enough to keep you hooked. Looking forward to the next one, just a great book (minus a couple love scenes I could've done without).
