The Reaction by Helena Coggan
2.0
Good lord, this book was tough to read.
This book tells a story of how there are magical beings and non-magical beings who were once at war with one another. In addition to that, these beings ALSO hate the Department and the Angels who are of higher authority. TO ADD ON, Rosalyn Elmsworth, our MC, has to deal with her Hybrid father being prosecuted in court. If that whole summary doesn't tire you out I don't know what will.
First and foremost, I thought I liked this book. It was slow in the beginning but the action slowly built up around 100+ page. However, the presence of just having too many things happen at once in one book led me to be confused and just overall tired of reading. My love for this book got sucked out of me at every turn of the page and I even looked forward to the end just to get this brick of a book over and done with.
Rosalyn Elmsworth or Rose did little to make me like her. For a fifteen-year-old, she was a handful. Rose did not possess any loveable qualities at all. She was highstrung, rude and just not how a fifteen-year-old should act. The only characters that I could stand were Loren Arkwood and David Elmsworth who reminded me of Sirius Black of Harry Potter.
I would not recommend this book to anyone unless they don't mind countless of events happening at once and characters there were superficial.
