delgasta 's review for:
Beautiful Exile
by Catherine Cowles
This was...not good to me. This plot was pretty ridiculous, and I understand it's fiction, but this was far-fetched with 3 separate antagonists.
The nickname "Vicious" is incredibly cringeworthy, and every book in the series has these ridiculous nicknames.
The tortured artist cliche is unsavory as well. I hope that it was implied that Arden went to therapy because yikes if not.
Lolli is not an amusing character to me in the slightest. She is constantly in these books, but Nora, the poor mother who lost her whole family and adopted these children, is hardly mentioned or brought up ever....why??
Catherine Cowles' novels are incredibly hit or miss for me and this was a BIG miss for me.
