The Blessed by Tonya Hurley
2.0
I must admit, when I first saw this book floating around, I thought the cover was intriguing. Even the premise of the book...sounds like it could go either way - good or bad.
sadly, I thought this was the latter. I think what bothered me the most was the writing. All of the characters thought and talked the same. They were overly witty and had perfect one-liners. It was like a movie where every line is said as a famous line - with a long dramatic pause and a face close up.
That's exactly how this was. Witty to the point of absurdity. And characters that didn't stand out on their own. It read more like a movie than a book.
and it just wasn't for me.
