I went into this pretty blind. But I soon discovered it wasn’t my type of book. But I was still willing to carry on and give it a try. Hoping I would become interested. However the writing just isn’t for me. It came across too young.

Ursula came across younger than she actually is aswell. Instead of imagining a 15 year old I imagined a girl who could possibly be 10 maybe 11 at most. A little juvenile to me. Whether that was intentional or not I don’t know.

My other issue was at the beginning of every chapter is starts with “In which I…”. This gave away what each chapter was about. I understand it’s written as journal like entries however I prefer to go into chapters without a line summing up what each chapter is about.

Due to these problems I sadly ended up DNFing at 50%.
