maddypetey 's review for:
Carve the Mark
by Veronica Roth
I've been thinking for days on how to review this book, literally (not really) pulling my hair out.
Carve The Mark. I usually don't like sci-fi, but this one was quite good. It took me almost a week to read, because some parts I couldn't get over how boring it was.
Yes. I loved the action and the chemistry between Cyra and Akos, but at times I felt myself wanting to read a different book, just get it done.
One thing I loved, and I hope will be in the sequel, the gay couples. There was two and I just loved how Veronica Roth incorporated it into her novel.
I felt some characters weren't devolved properly, and she brought up a lot of characters that we meet in the beginning, but by the time they were introduced again I didn't remember who they were.
If you like Star Wars, or even Divergent, I have a strong feeling you'll get feels for this novel. I loved Divergent, and I don't think Carve The Mark made me want to keep reading as much as my beloved Divergent series.
So, I gave this book 3 stars. When I first got it I was thinking, "OMG I'm going to be such a sci-fi nerd!" But, I don't think I'll be reading much more sci-fi, sad to say. It wasn't as great as I hoped it would be, but still a book I'd recommend.
