minayana 's review for:
A Tempest of Tea
by Hafsah Faizal
DID NOT FINISH: 19%
I was soooo excited to read this cause the synopsis is sooo intriguing…..but unfortunately the book was not. I could tell pretty early on that I probably wasn’t going to like it, but I told myself I’d read until at least page 100 before I dnfed…..I didn’t make it that far lol. It’s not that it was bad or anything, some things just really irked me and I just wasn’t invested in anything. I didn’t like how we’re expecting Arthie to be super badass and then within the first 10 pages she’s blushing over a guy who is supposed to be her enemy….absolutely no build up or tension. There’s a lot of explaining in this book. Instead of dropping a detail and letting us form our own conclusion or opinion, there’s a lot of over explaining. I decided to skip to one of the last chapters to see if it would entice me to finish it but it just confirmed that it wasnt for me :( I would definitely recommended trying it if you like the concept! Just cause it wasn’t for me doesn’t mean it wont be for you :)
