BAD... just BAD
Eve and Adam by Michael Grant, Katherine Applegate
uh...well...see...hmm...
This book was recommended to me at the American Library Association Annual Conference. I was excited about the concept, girl creates the perfect boy. The characters were okay and the story was also okay. I was just disappointed that it wasn't better or more or something. I didn't feel anything for these characters. They could literally live or die and I wouldn't feel anything for them. I love, LOVE Young Adult books. But this one... :/
Below is a link to a much more positive review.

You know, it's nice that you're honest in your reviews. I've just started reviewing fairly recently, and compared to some other bloggers I feel like a witch. Everyone seems to love everything all the time...and I...well...don't always.
ReplyDeleteThanks! Yes, I agree everyone always loves everything. Some books are a 'fun' read and maybe not the best. It's okay to say that. Some books for whatever reason are 'bad' and yet we still love them. It's the magic of books. And then there are those books that uh give books a bad name. Sadly, this is one of those books.
