But something sinister is going on in her grandmother's house and as Trinity comes into her powers she'll have to put a stop to it.
First Sentence
Goosebumps snaked up my spine.
*I received a copy of Daughter of the Sun from the great people at Author Assistant.*
I agreed to read this one because I'm holding out the hope that someone someday will write a fun Egyptian based story.
Daughter of the Sun, sadly, wasn't that book for me. I felt like the story took way too long to get going and was incredibly predictable from nearly the first pages. I knew every twist and turn that was coming and not once found myself surprised which was a huge let down.
The book was edited cleanly but I felt like the story was one I'd heard a million times with all the cliches you'd expect.
I feel bad because I really wanted to like this one but I only found it and OK read. Sadly, I won't be continuing on with the series.
Good job finishing!
ReplyDeleteThat's too bad. I would have totally read this one 'cause of the whole Egypt thing. Oh, well.
ReplyDeleteBummer! It's always disappointing when you always know what's about to happen before it actually happens. I like for books to keep me guessing, wondering, and constantly trying to figure them out. I'm sorry this one didn't work for you, and hope your next pick is better. <3
ReplyDeleteLindsi @ Do You Dog-ear?
Sorry this didn't work for you. The synopsis made it sound promising. =(
ReplyDeleteAw that's too bad. We do need more Egyptian- themed books, for sure. I hate it when everything's predictable...
ReplyDeleteThat sounds very disappointing. :(
ReplyDeleteSorry this book was a disappointment. It's a pity since I thought the Egyptian setting sounds interesting. Hope the next book will be better.
