bookitallaway 's review for:
Wish
by Sara Flanagan
This is not quite what I expected but in a good way. The writing was enjoyable and the plot intense. The MMC and MFC are heartbreakingpy perfect for one another.
What I liked:
- I like the genie in a bottle retelling
- The MFC growth from young and naive to older and jaded was done well
- The various magic types were intriguing as well as the magical fae and other creatures
- MFC's protectiveness
- The spice!
- Depiction of abuse verbal and physical was well done
- MMC love and care for MFC is adorable and sweet
What I didnt like:
- The MFC's caring but not caring. It was almost selective stubbornness
-The MMC and MFC serious guilt trips they give themselves. Sometimes it feels forced and unnecessary.
- The side character from the village. Why bring her along? Why even include her? It just doesn't flow and felt forced. Maybe in book 2 it will come more to light?
Overall: 4/5
Plot : 4/5
Character Dev: 5/5
Spice: 4/5
Entertainment Factor: 5/5
