Full Review from my blog Owl Eyes Reviews

I love reading books about cultures and lifestyles that are not very familiar to me. It’s very important to learn about people who are different from us because our world is full of differences. I wasn’t aware that I was going to learn anything about a new culture when I picked up this book. Even though this book wasn’t a book that centered around the Greek culture, I learned a lot about Callie and her family that really made me happy in the end.
This book was not perfect, by far, but there was something about it that made me want continue. One problem I had with this book was the sense of time. The author didn’t really write about the time very much, therefore, I was very confused about the time span everything was happening on.The romance went a little too quickly in my perspective (based on everything I said about the description of time) but I didn’t really care because I wanted to know what was going to happen with the story. One thing that really kept me going was the constant plot twists in this book. I didn’t expect any of them. (But, I never expect plot twists so there is a possibility it was just me.) The ending came a little too quickly for my liking. The book was setting up for a big explosive ending and, I did get it, but it was all shoved into the last fifteen pages. It was kind of annoying.
Overall, I really liked this book a lot even though I’m not quite sure why. There is definitely a lot I didn’t like about this book but for some reason it didn’t bother me a whole lot. I guess not everything has to be answered perfectly. Sometimes it’s okay to just let something just be what they are.
