Hazel (2934 KP) rated The Boy From The Woods in Books
Feb 23, 2020
I have to say that I am a fan of Harlen's work so this one won't put me off reading more in the future but after starting off really well, it struggled to keep my attention and I found myself skimming large sections which is never a good sign. I was unable to get into the story as I found it fragmented and the characters just didn't do it for me at all; Wilde is interesting and Hester has some great one-liners but that's about it.
My mum always says "you can't please everyone all of the time" so don't take my word for it and give it a go.
Thank you to Random House UK, Cornerstone and NetGalley for my advance copy in return for an honest review.
