Wanted
by Betsy Schow
I received a free copy of this book from the publishers via Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.
DNF - 40%
Wanted is the second book in the Soelled series and this time follows sidekick character Rexi Hood as she tries to make her mark in the land of fairy tales and magic.
I quite enjoyed Spelled, the first book in this series and though it was a bit silly and juvenile at times, I was mostly just amused and entertained. However with Wanted, I kind of feel like everything that I didn't like about Spelled was multipled tenfold in this book. It just felt a bit rushed and messy and I was just so confused the way it seemed to jump all over the place all the time. I would think Rexi was going to one place and had a goal and next minute she'd be somewhere else. It felt like a map with a start and an end but then the middle was just a bunch of squiggles.
I also think a proper recap would have worked at the beginning as I did find I had forgotten a lot of the finer details from Spelled and scrambled to figure who was who and what was happening at the start.
