I liked the prologue better than most of the rest of the book. It also features the most dramatic scene of the book. The prologue features a different tone than the rest of the book, however.I knew that Furyborn is YA, but it’s definitely on the older end of the YA spectrum and the style is typical YA fantasy – nothing particularly fancy. Unfortunately for me, this book is totally different from that. I was willing to give it a shot because I adored the fantasy-esque scenes Legrand wrote in Some Kind of Happiness. I would have skipped this book if it was by anyone else.(At least I feel like it’s been a long time since I read a book that was neither here nor there for me!) Hence the brief thoughts post instead of a full review that I struggled to write for a week and then gave up on. I need to create a rule where I don’t request young adult fantasy – I have high hopes of enjoying it, but I rarely do and then I don’t have much to say in a review that I don’t feel has been better articulated elsewhere. I think everyone in the book blogging world who would want to read this already has.
