Thank you, @Amh73090 , for your kind words. As a reviewer, sometimes it's difficult to choose a score. For one, I know a lot of work and effort goes into creating and developing a story. For another, I want to be honest, fair, and true. I think many reviewers here go through similar thoughts and feelings here. Anyway, I appreciate you for acknowledging it and thank you for taking the time to read my review! :)

Oh yeah! :text-welcomeconfetti: Hope you enjoy it here! :)

I read both reviews and the positive review may have been more positive than the negative review. With both reviews in mind, I definitely want to see a sample of the book so I can make a decision based on my own experience. Reading can be a very personal thing and it was interesting to see the two differing reviews. Thanks to both reviewers.

Thank you, cheryltkn, for your comments. After reading the other one, it definitely seems like a book that a reader will love or simply not. I absolutely agree that reading is a personal thing and everyone needs to go with their gut feeling on something like this. Let us know what you choose after sampling! :)

Honest review. Gives the author constructive criticism for her next book. Might read it in the future. I like a challenge when I read.

Ok, not everyone has to agree. The story should have gone this way or another, what I appreciate is a smooth, effortless read. And Yes, a message if possible. Message is almost lacking, I understand, after reading the book sample and the review.
