A review by bellezey
Earthbound by Aprilynne Pike

1.0

The read was a total drag!
I love aprilynne pike, i love wings.. I i i i i dunno how i can justify this work of hers!
I mean come on aprilynne, this was one of the most stereotypical book i've read, like everrrrr!

1- we got a protagonist something happens to her and she becomes special or discovers that she's special, and not to mention she is npt different from most of the YA protagonist with their annoying narrating.

2- the love triangle like the freaking looove triangle presents it self to us from the freaking start not past page 50 i swear.

3 - the love triangle in this book is soooo cheesy so predictable, so annoying so like unnecessary i swear i can't tell you how unnecessary it was!

4- the characters are so goddamn flat, not thought of much clearly. Like tavia is one of the most annoying characters i've read about she beats Juliette in the shatter me series i swear to god!!!!
And you can see right through Benson like why didn't he freak out why didn't he act like a freaking normal person through the entire book and tavia even though she freaking saw signs she freaking was sooo so so stupid not to put things together and figure out he's not what he seems!!
And don't get me started on thw Quinn Darius - Logan guy!!!! I mean his character was so flat i couls kill myself and be done with it and i get that he couldn't get much development of his character due to his condition but even so. It all goes back to this book hasn't been thought of very well!

5- don't get me started on the earthbound thingy! God like it's the most common idea ever. She could have directed it better with a good amount of research through the Egyptian mythology and stuff it would've been so awesome. But it felt all chopped off bits from here and their and random memories popping up here and there!


6- the events seemed rather over exaggerated most of the times, like everyone was freaking out over nothing. And the evil dudes who were chasing her were a total joke they didn't feel scary to me at all i guess that's one of aprilynne's weaknesses she can't write a good damned villian. She can't her villains are always a joke and nothing serious!


I so so so didn't like this book and i dunno if i have the ability to even think about reading the 2nd one in this series
I think i'm gonna quit Aprilynne for a good amount of time i need to recover from what she did to me because of this book!
