A review by thedistortedbliss
Persephone's Orchard by Molly Ringle
4.0
I honestly am having a hard time writing this review. My thoughts towards this book was up and down and all around. The beginning was eh, the characters started out very hmm cheesy. I did not connect at all with them. Sophie who is the main female lead was to trustworthy towards Adrian. Girl, you just met the guy...who had another guy... push you to the ground and bring you to the underworld...and and and of course Adrian says to get her back to the real world he has to hold her..and what does she do. She just does it without hesitation.
then she cries a lot and blows her nose everytime. She somehow always has tissues on hand? Can't you do what normal girls do and wipe your snot on your arm and sniffle. I know that is silly of me to let that bug me but it did.
Ok Adrian is the male lead. And immediately he is already saying he loves her and misses her. But once the story goes on you learn to know why he says such things and then I become more in love with Adrian and his sweet ways but sometimes he just annoyed the crap of me.
By page 232 I was really starting to like the book. The writing style was not my favorite. The author wrote in third person and had you sometimes in sophie's head or Adrian's. I hated being in Sophie's head.. I wanted to poke her nose so hard! Either she was being stupid or being to smart (that makes no sense). I loved reading the stories of the olden days, I looked forward to reading the history parts. It was relaxing reading about the Gods and Godesses. When you were in Adrian's head it was written a little clearer but he wasn't very masculine.
I know this review sounds mean but all in all it was a good read.
I liked the plot. Thought the authors thought process of the underworld.. was not scary. IT was... not the underworld. I don't know what it was.
The beginning gets a 3 star and the reason I give it a 4 star is being for some reason I did not want to put the book down.
