For She is Wrath by Emily Varga

DID NOT FINISH

---

DNF at 16%. While the premise of this one sounds awesome, nothing about the way the book begins made me want to continue reading. The writing was not descriptive or captivating. It felt like not enough effort was made to building or creating the setting for example when there is a loose bit of floor that she uses to hide her escape route we the reader don’t fully understand how that is possible when it’s not described or fleshed out enough. It seems too convenient. The dialogue reads like a Disney channel superhero movie except for the incongruous times when she would curse?? The cheesy lines she would say before or after attacking an opponent felt childish. And at this point in the book she was only just breaking out of prison and yet I was not interested in knowing what happens to her after. Maybe others will love this story but for me it just couldn’t get me to connect emotionally. Thank you Net Galley and Wednesday Books for this e-arc!
