River's Edge (Book One) REVIEW


This has been one of the worst books I have read, ever. So many things were wrong with it, where should I start? Whoever her editor and fact checkers are needs to be fired and blacklisted for ever having let this book get through. References are made to how hot Josh Hartnet is, I am so sorry but he is not relevant at this point in time. The main character still has a flip phone, and her plan only allows free minutes on Sunday. I don’t think I have heard anyone mention being worried about minutes in over three years. For a book that was published in Spring 2013, it reads almost like one that was written in 2002 for parts of it.
The main character jumps to a million conclusions and is completely hypocritical most of the time. She not only makes bad choices, but stupid ones and then blames everyone else for her problems.
The plot: After her mother abandons her on her 18th birthday, Kasia gets a job working as a biologist’s assistant in Iowa. While studying turtle’s, she falls into the River, only to find that she can see, breath and glow. The book followers her as she learns to accept the fact that she is part demon, and what side of the demonic River power struggle she wants to be on. There is a love interests as well.
I will NOT be reading any future books in the series. It was horrible and I give it 1 out of five stars.
