Guardians of Dawn: Zhara by S. Jae-Jones

1.5

adventurous tense fast-paced

This … ugh. Don’t go into this thinking you are getting Sailor Moon. When the most interesting part of the story is a transforming cat with better decision making skills than the FMC and MMC, you have problems. The cat gave the side eye probably as many times as I did. 

So, somehow she can’t use her powers the ENTIRE book until her blind step sister that she babies & belittles holds her hand for two seconds as boom big baddy demon defeated in 8 pages. Give me a BREAK. 

“I’ve tried so hard to figure out how to use them, but I just can’t”. WHEN GIRL WHEN!? You were so focused on your good looking giggles & reading the next issue of the book with way too long a name then to figure out who Han was & get your powers ignited. BSFFR.

Two stars because of the sassy cat & gay BFF/lover girl. I wanna throw down over the time I spent on this. 

I’m fired up (pun intended). That was better humour than what was offered here.
