A Soldier's Duty by Jean Johnson
2.0
Oy. This is one of those books that I like, but I'm not exactly sure why.
Ia is a competent heroine/MC - and that's the entire problem because she's a huge Mary Sue. When your main characters knows everything, is amazing at everything, and has hardly any room to fail or grow, you can't root for them; which makes for hardly enjoyable reading. The secondary characters were all fit to mold as well. There also is a lot of information in this book. A LOT. It got a bit tedious after awhile, honestly.
And yet, still....I liked the book. *shrugs*
Not the worst, but not the best either. Entertaining enough that I might check out the rest of the series some time in the future.
