Wattle Creek by Fiona McCallum, Jennifer Vuletic
2.0

ARC kindly provided in exchange for honest review.

Initial thoughts - this one might take a while to get into.

50% - Still not the best writing style, or maybe I should say not the writing style I like the most. Is anything remotely interesting going to happen in this book?

60-65% - All of a sudden they're in love? Wait, what?!? The storyline is too jumpy in this one.

90% - Some good things happening but there's still no proper structure or exploration for some of the things happening in the story.

100% - Abrupt ending but good gestures from the townspeople showing the true country spirit in Aus.

Overall this one wasn't my kind of novel. The story jumped too much and I felt that Damien and Jacqueline didn't have enough interaction to all of a sudden be in love in the way they were. The idea of the story is a great, its just not my kind of writing style.
