Hidden Wings by Cameo Renae
2.0

The story is good, even if it is fairly predictable. The real issue is the writing, it’s pretty bad. The dialogue is awkward and clunky. The whole thing reads like a 12 year old wrote it, and a dumb one too. “Lia turned to me. Her cheeks were blushed in bright pink, and her Asian eyes were the widest I’ve seen them”. Oh wow, even her Asian eyes widened, that’s how attractive this guy was. Is this author serious?? The phrase is used more than once, and is the only description we get for Lia’s appearance, unless you also count turquoise glasses to replace her broken pink ones, a random fact that was included and really nails in the “weird girl in the 2000s” aesthetic the character is given.

All of the descriptions fall flat. The characters, the scenery, the emotions, are all just 2D. I wouldn’t recommend this book to anyone, I’m glad it’s free so I didn’t have to waste my money on it.
