kathyreviewsbooks 's review for:
The Wicker King
by K. Ancrum
Before I get into the review I'm going to start of by saying their this book needs a big trigger warning. Please do not read this book if you are not on a good state of mind. Okay with that, let's get into the actual review.
This book was very confusing for, i didn't understand what was happening half of the time. The whole book felt like a puzzle that no matter how hard you try you can't piece together. This is honestly one of the few books in which i didn't connect to the story of the characters. I kept hoping that as i kept reading i would start connecting to the characters or the story but it just didn't happen for me. I was in pain but not because the book made me cry, it was a sad book, but because the MC characters wasn't getting better they were getting worse. I understand that this is the way things go with mental illnesses sometimes but it still was painful for me to read. Also jack..... Was i supposed to be rooting for Jack and August to get together? Because I honestly wasn't. I understand that they are both going through terrible situations but that doesn't and shouldn't justify what was essentially an assistive relationship. I can't fit for that. Honestly the only reason that i gave this book a 1.5/5 and not a 1/5 is because of the mental illnesses representation. Other then that i did not enjoy this book and it isn't one that i would willingly read again.
