anastaciaknits 's review for:
Ice Crown
by Kay L. Moody
First, thank you to booksirens.com and the author for my e-copy. All opinions are my own.
So- I love the premise of the book, and it has the makings of a great series. It was proofread well, but could have benefitted from a more thorough editing.
Being a novella, it’s difficult to connect with any of the characters, and all the scenes were rushed, vague, and confusing. Random facts pop up occasionally, crucial to the story but with no foreshadowing, making the plot feel unrealistic.
The MC acts way too grown up when she’s 7 and incredibly immature when she’s 17 - but other than that, she’s just a poor (oh so poor! I’m so poor! Poor me, I’m poor!) but yet perfect, with skills no one else has.
Really, if it wasn’t for the premise, I’d only give 2.5 stars.
