A review by apalershadeofwhite
The Road to Farringale by Charlotte E. English
3.0
The author definitely had a thesaurus handy when writing. Reading certain sentences felt like the writer was using big words just to sound smart. Some of the words seem forced, but others do fit well. I guess it's just finding that balance.
Also, the ending was very lacklustre. I understand it's part of a series, but it just felt unfinished; like stopping in the middle of a sentence. It could have ended so much better with a much more interesting cliffhanger.
I did really like the characters, though! They felt real, and I could actually imagine them. And the dialogue was really funny (apart from the made-up curse words, but we all know those hardly ever work out).
