Review for Cora:
Samantha Jane
3/5 Stars
Good Story
The first three chapters of this book are difficult to follow as the main character has amnesia and has no idea who she is, where she is, why she is there and what is going on. As the reader, I was just as confused as the character because without any backstory and told from a first person pov it was very confusing.
Also, the author's style of writing using one and two sentence paragraphs kept taking me out of the story.
There are occasional typos like using waist instead of waste.
That being said, I gave this book three stars because it held my interest enough that I read to the end to see what happened. What little I could glean about the mythology of this world was interesting. I just wish the author had gone into more detail regarding that.
Based on the epilogue this book seems to belong to another series of books and would have made more sense to me had I read that series first, but it does not say that anywhere in the book description.
I depend on other people's reviews when choosing books and since this book did not have a single review I wanted to leave one to help anyone looking to read this novel, so hopefully this review is helpful.
