The Becoming of Noah Shaw by Michelle Hodkin
2.0

This book was the reason that I picked up the series. I kept seeing this book everywhere. I raced through the series and enjoyed it and came to really like Noah. But it all changed when I read this book.
I was looking forward to read from Noah's point of view to see his growth now . But I came to dislike Noah, and that was not what I expected at all. I understood his flaws and its the flaws that make me usually fall in love with the main male character but being in his head changed that.

I felt the story was really slow and I would have to force myself to read it. I got to the end only to find that this was not the end.

I think the problem that I had reading from Noah's pov was that I kept comparing him to all of
Jennifer L Armentrout guy characters(because they are perfectly flawed). This was because of the relationship he had with Mara. He would be not okay with her keeping secrets from him but it was okay for him to keep secrets from her. That part got on my nerve and I could not push it away.

It was those sort of little things that come with trust that I felt was lacking. The story pacing g was slow and the book certainly did not grasp my interest. I only had 10 chapters left but I gave up and just read the last chapter to finish it.
