nicholeb84 's review for:

The Golden Lily by Richelle Mead
3.0

Book two of the six novel series.

The Good:

- Sydney and Adrian are two people that I want to see interact more and more. I really enjoy them together.

- Marcus Finch, I want to know more about you. I truly do.

- I like that some of the characters (like Trey and Ms. Terwiliger) more development.

The Bad:

- It feels as if there really is no solid plot until page 300 or so. I mean, things happen: Sydney hangs around with people, she dates a boy who may actually be the most boring 17 year old on the planet, she watches other characters do experiments. But, there is no solid plot - just lots of little moments that will lead to the big climax. All of that can be okay, but here - it was a tad dull at times.

- Characters like Jill, Eddie, Angeline don't really have a lot to do. I like them, but I want to like them more. I want to be more invested in these characters.


The Random:

- Sydney Sage needs to get away from Alchemists. They are such a cult and they have completely blinded her to anything that isn't black and white.
