hamsammich 's review for:
Scavenge the Stars
by Tara Sim
**I received a copy of this book from the publisher on Netgalley in exchange of an honest review. All opinions are completely my own**
I honestly wish I could give this book a better review, but it just wasn't as good as I was hoping.
The way it's written was pretty confusing at first, as it is written in a dual point of view. It isn't marked out at all, so you basically have to figure that out. It's not hard, but like I said it made the beginning confusing. The characters were really interesting and I thought they were written and developed well. I do wish there had been some backstory to some of them, but it doesn't affect the story that there wasn't. And there’s also the possibility for more in the next book.
My main issue was the story as a whole. I think it had great potential, but the way it was written just wasn't for me. I found that I was bored for most of the book and I actually wanted to put it down about halfway through. I also think the story seemed really flat for a huge portion of the book, with everything happening in the very beginning and the very end. I like a book that keeps my attention held all the way through, but this just didn’t do it. There would occasionally be things that happened that would heighten my interest, but only momentarily.
Overall, it just wasn't for me and I don't see myself picking the sequel up either.
