The Best Possible Answer By E. Katherine Kottaras

The Best Possible AnswerThe Best Possible Answer by E. Katherine Kottaras
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

(I received a copy from Netgalley, In exchange for an honest review.)

Actual rating - 2.5

The main character in this wasn't bad, but I can't say I really liked her.

This started off feeling quite slow for me, and I was struggling to get into it. Unfortunately, that never really changed for me, and it just couldn't gain my interest enough for me to enjoy it.

Overall, Not a very enjoyable one for me.

Hleo By Rebecca Weller

My rating: 3 of 5 stars

(I received a copy from the author, In exchange for an honest review.)

The characters in this were alright, but I didn't love any of them.

This was an okay read, although there were points where my interest started to waver slightly, so I felt a bit bored at times. It felt like quite a quick read, so I didn't find it dragging at all, which was good.

Overall, Not one that kept me gripped throughout, but an okay read.

The main characters in this were okay, but I didn't love them.

Heartless By Marissa Meyer

My rating: 3 of 5 stars

(I received a copy from Netgalley, In exchange for an honest review.)

The characters in this annoyed me at times, so I can't say I loved any of them.

This wasn't a bad read, but I've read better retellings. It took me a while to get into it, and even then there were times where I started to lose interest slightly. It felt rather long too, so there were points where it dragged slightly.

Overall, An okay read, but not the best retelling I've read.

When She Was Bad By Tammy Cohen

When She Was BadWhen She Was Bad by Tammy Cohen
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

(I received a copy from Netgalley, In exchange for an honest review.)

Actual rating - 3.5

This started off okay, but after a few chapters I started to lose interest a bit. That didn't last long though fortunately, and it soon got my interest back.

The chapters from Anne were the most gripping for me. I really wanted to know what was going on, and when a chapter from her point of view ended, I wanted another pronto!

Overall, A decent read.

Lie With Me By Sabine Durrant

My rating: 3 of 5 stars

(I received a copy from Netgalley, In exchange for an honest review.)

This wasn't bad, but I can't say it was one that gripped me. Whenever I put it down, I didn't have the urge to pick it back up, and whenever I did pick it up, it didn't take long before I felt a bit bored.

It was just a bit disappointing unfortunately.

My rating: 3 of 5 stars

(I received a copy from Netgalley, In exchange for an honest review.)

Actual rating - 2.75

I didn't love Clancy, but she was an okay character.

This bored me quite early on unfortunately, so it wasn't one I can say I really enjoyed. Any parts that managed to gain a bit more of my interest didn't last long, and the book dragged in areas for me because of it.

Overall, Not awful, but not a very enjoyable one for me.

Spin the Sky By Jill MacKenzie

My rating: 3 of 5 stars

(I received a copy from Edelweiss, In exchange for an honest review.)

The characters were okay, but there wasn't any that I loved.

This wasn't a bad read, but it wasn't one I can say I enjoyed either. Despite the book being a quick read, there were parts in it that dragged for me. There wasn't really that much going on, and it took a massive chunk of the book just for the main character to dance for the show!

Overall, An okay read.

Butterfly Bones By Rebecca L. Carpenter

Butterfly BonesButterfly Bones by Rebecca L. Carpenter
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

(I received a copy from Netgalley, In exchange for an honest review.)

I didn't love the main character in this, but she was okay. I did feel quite sorry for her, as the bullying she was going through was awful, and she didn't have an easy time at all.

This was an okay read, but I did find the first 25% or so to be a bit repetitive. It was also quite slow in areas, and it dragged a few times because of it, but it wasn't too bad.

Overall, An okay read.

(I received a copy from Netgalley, In exchange for an honest review.)

The characters in this weren't bad, but I didn't love them. I just couldn't warm to them enough to really care about them.

This felt quite slow at the start, and it didn't take long for me to feel a bit bored. There wasn't anything awfully wrong with it, and I'm sure a lot of people will love it, but it just wasn't a very enjoyable one for me unfortunately.

Overall, Not one I loved, but an okay read.

I felt quite sorry for the characters in this, but I can't say I loved them.

Actual rating - 3.25

I felt really sorry for Jasmine in this. The situation she was in really couldn't have been easy to deal with.

This took me a while to get into at first, but after a few chapters it managed to gain my interest. The writing sometimes felt a bit off to me, and there were still a few times where my interest waned slightly, but it was a decent read overall.

The Amateurs By Sara Shepard

The AmateursThe Amateurs by Sara Shepard
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

(I received a copy from Netgalley, In exchange for an honest review.)

This was an okay read, but I didn't enjoy it as much as the authors other books.

The beginning of this was alright, and the end of it was too. The middle lacked a bit for me though, unfortunately. It felt slow in areas, and struggled to keep my interest at times. There were a few parts in the middle that started to drag slightly for me because of it.

Overall, An okay read, but not as enjoyable as the authors other books.
