Blurb for “Scorched”

Kyra

What the Flames!? All males deserve to rot in eternal Abyss. But I never would’ve guessed that I possess Magik to make it actually happen. Now, I’m the most wanted felon, on the run, with the only surviving male- Jadox Griffin- an arrogant, boring military jerk- who I despise more than my anything. Unfortunately, pairing with Jadox is my sole option of fixing what I broke.

Jadox

Holy Goddess! Kyra Kozelski is powerful, stubborn, and a pain in my ass. I need to convince her to hand over her family heirloom to protect my tribe’s village from Ordulls before it’s too late. But all she wants to do is get under my skin. So, why do I keep imagining getting myself under her?

The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo is a story within a story, which I love. The newspaper clippings of her career are fun to read but the writing in this novel itself is quite dry so it’s taking me longer to get through because most of the events are passive/retrospective. I'm anticipating when the current timeline meets up more with the past so it’ll all blend together. Page 181- Goodness the scandal and acting is amaze balls, lol. I can see a turning point here and am excited to find out the rest. DNF. I truly wanted to love “The Missing Treasures of Amy Ashton” because of the charming blurb, yet it was a DNF for a few reasons, the prose being the biggest barrier. For example, the first sentence stood out as one of the weaker first sentences I have read in a while. Usually I don’t notice first sentences or analyze them, but this one jumped out at me for the opposite reason intended. The first sentence: “It really was too much.” Because it’s so abstract this doesn’t give me anything to latch onto. I don’t have a sense of genre or character or plot. As I kept reading there were many filtering words used, that were “telling” instead of showing, like “Amy found she was glad she’d come after all.” or “Normally the train home on Fridays was less busy than the rest of the week.” DNF ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️
