Rating: 3

My rating for this book is a 3 because the book only takes place in one setting for the

most part. This makes the book not at all compelling to me personally. It was hard to

focus reading the book as it was not very interesting.

My rating for this book is a 3 because the book is a bit confusing at times and the

plot is a little blurred at times. The book is okay in my opinion but I think it will be great

she even exists. She has a poisonous touch that will kill anything that she touches. She
