I got Fates by Lanie Bross from
Netgalley for free in exchange for an honest review quite some time
ago. So, here it goes. I wasn't in love with this story. I wanted to
be, oh how I wanted to be. As must as I hate to give anything but a
five star review. But there was just something missing. The plot was
unique and I really liked it, but it kinda read as a drafty like. For
me, I love the blurb and the cover; a lot. Also, the idea behind this
story it good I thought it was a wonderful idea. I may have even
liked it if the blurb and the story its self matched; and the story
itself was what I thought it was going to be. There is a chance that
I wouldn't have been disappointed with the story because the blurb
and the story wasn't the same. I did however like Lanie Bross's
writing style. I may give this book a re-read in a year or so just
because I now know what to expect or I may give another one of Lanie
Bross stories a read. I feel that a rewriting or editing of the book
to match the blurb or change the blurb to the book would make a lot
of difference. Like I said I enjoy the idea behind this story and
maybe even the story if there wasn't that let down or that bit if not
that same between the two. Some of the characters, were good. I
really hope that if and when I do re-read this I'll enjoy as much as
I was hoping to. Or if this story gets rewritten I'll like it as much
as I wanted to. I wouldn't just shove this book away. I would give it
a try at less because maybe its a book that you'll like, maybe it
wasn't a book for me. But I really do like the idea behind this
story. So, all in all it was a fine read I was just disappointed.
Netgalley provided this book to me for free in exchange for an honest
