Reviewed by Darlyn JostenIrgendwie too much. Hat mich nicht gefesselt.
Reviewed by LenaaaDystopian, different and epic.
Reviewed by Valentina StevicIch habe nicht mit so einer Geschichte gerechnet Ich mochte die Story richtig gerne, auch wenn ich mit dieser Umsetzung nicht gerechnet habe. Es hat ein mega interessantes Setting und an sich die ganze Geschichte ist so spannend und sie ist richtig cool gewesen. Wie gesagt, war es mega spannend und somit auch ein richtiger Page Turner, ich konnte das Buch gar nicht mehr aus der Hand legen. Wir haben eine beeinträchtigte Protagonistin aber sie ist so stark und lässt sich nicht runterkriegen/ aufhalten von ihre Beeinträchtigung. Ich mochte Red wirklich gerne. Auch der Found Family Trope der in der Art Auftritt ist richtig schön und die Interaktionen mit netten/vertrauenswürdigen Charakteren war einfach wholesome. Der Schreibstil war sehr schön aber dennoch leicht zum lesen. Das einzige was wirklich etwas blöd war, dass das Ende so schnell war und das offene Ende hat mich mit sehr vielen Fragen zurück gelassen. Ich werde auf jeden Fall noch irgendwelche Bücher der Autorin lesen. Eine klare Empfehlung von mir ;)
