A review by goodbyerachel
The Hurricane Wars by Thea Guanzon

Did not finish book. Stopped at 18%.

The beginning was so confusing. We are dropping into action, which is generally a good call for fantasy, but the context, setting, characters, technology is not explained. I don’t even fully understand the reason/motivation for this war. 

Then, the writing still felt… like a draft? like fan fiction? The overuse of unnecessary adjectives or descriptions of things that don’t matter started to make me cringe. 

I just couldn’t do over 400 pages of this which is such a bummer. I was really looking forward to it and, honestly, have seen such good reviews so far.
