Cute at first, but quickly became boring and repetitive. Made it to about 30% then realized I actually could care less about Holly or her friends.
Loved Levi, Reagan and Wren, but Cath came off as a mopey spoiled brat too much for me to sympathize with her. Also, could have done with a lot less of Simon Snow.
Royal blue sweatshirt with dolphin appliqué!!!! And love the sweater with the...beach scene...on the cover!
I was enjoying my reread of Sunfires until Danielle. This one was just not...good. It was *okay* in the beginning when something was going on besides spoiled Danielle and creepy Geoffrey's relationship. Then the war ends and we just have Danielle obsessing thinking about Geoffrey. Oh, merchants are going broke because they can't sell their stuff...but what about Geoffrey? Oh, tons of people just died in a terrible war...but what about Geoffrey? This got very old, very quickly. Oh, Geoffrey just stole some priceless cameos? Oh well, he just didn't know any better (than to STEAL from his girlfriend and her family??? Sorry, Danielle that one doesn't work for me). If I wasn't so OCD about series, this one would've been a DNF pretty early on.
2.5 starsAmazing idea, so-so execution.
Some "highlights":
Florence worrying about a coat while her parents are TRAPPED IN BURNING BUILDING!
The pointless chapter about the private investigator
And bonus "highlight":
The weird random Sherlock Holmes fact shoved gracelessly into said chapter.
