The Jealousy of Jalice by Jesse Nolan Bailey

3.0

Title: The Jealousy of Jalice
Author: Jesse Nolan Bailey
Rating: ★★★☆☆

I enjoyed the world that the book took place in. It seemed large and like I, as a reader, was only scratching the surface. There was so much more that we could discover if we just kept exploring.

I liked the idea of the story, but for some reason I don't think it stuck with me very much. It's not that the book itself was bad, but I never really found any moments that hooked me in.

There was nothing that turned me off of the book, it just sort of felt okay the whole time I was reading it.

I honestly don't have much else to say, and it kind of upsets me because I spent a lot of time reading the book, but I don't want to just tell you that everything was okay.

The characters were hit and miss. I wasn't a fan of Jalice. Her writing seemed inconsistent to me, and she brought down some enjoyment for me. But other than that, most characters were okay.

To counteract the mediocre character development, I will admit that I liked the story's premise; Jalice at first believing she has been kidnapped, then realizing the truth behind all the lies she has been told.
