A review by stefcore
Zac and Mia by A.J. Betts
2.0
it appears that my ability to finish books is getting worse.
i like zac. he seems like a good person. i understand him, and i enjoyed reading his point of view. he is the redeeming factor of this novel. i really did like part one because of him.
who i don't like is mia. i will admit that perhaps i haven't given her enough of a chance. from her first introduction, i was not a fan. she doesn't make sense to me; who blasts music in their hospital room when there are so many others around? how can she be so dismissive of her health? why does she value her image over herself? how can she steal from people, lying through it all in an effort to get her way? i thought that reading her point of view would help me understand her, but it didn't. she is, quite literally, running from her problems. i don't want to be around to see it catch up on her.
i do enjoy a.j. betts' writing. it's her character that i don't enjoy.
(should i be reviewing books that i couldn't finish? probably not. will i stop? probably not.)
