gabieowleyess 's review for:
The Forsaken
by Lisa M. Stasse
Full Review from my blog Owl Eyes Reviews
I have no idea why, but I haven’t read a YA dystopian book in what seems like forever. So, when I picked this one up, I was a little nervous. I couldn’t remember if I had stopped reading YA dystopian for a reason of it it was just a coincidence. This book is one my favorite book trailers list, so there was no way that I was going to skip over it. And, I’m glad I didn’t.
Throughout the whole book, I wouldn’t decide if I liked the main character Alenna or not. I didn’t have a reason to not like her but I didn’t have a reason to like her either. Actually, the whole story kind of felt that way as well. The whole book I was waiting for something to happen. The thing that I was waiting for happened but, in my opinion, it didn’t really live up to what I was expecting.
The reason why I liked this book was because it demanded my attention. Yeah, there were boring stints but I continued because I was curious about what was going to happen. That was it, no freaking out or anything. I was hoping that it would elicit a bigger response.
In the end, I think this book was a nice tame introduction back into the YA dystopian. I don’t think I’ll be reading the sequel but, we never know what the future may hold.
