What do I have to say about this reading?!
Today I'm here to talk about 'Alienated' by Melissa Landers... I saw some 'video' reviews and everyone seems to love this book.
This was what I was thinking in the first 100 pages of the book: I'm NOT loving this book... I should be loving it as much as everyone do! - why?? Actually I don't really think that this book is that good...
I started reading it and I didn't get myself into the story as I normally do when I like a book. I didn't hate it... I didn't like it... it was kind of 'soup without salt' or 'cake without sugar'.
I can honestly say that it was one of the books that disappointed me that much... really really much! And that's because everyone was saying good things about it, and everyone was giving it 5 stars... and at the moment I really want to give it only 2 stars because I just can't deal with the fact that there's no 'interesting' story (in my opinion) in this book... but like I said I didn't hate it so... I'm going to give it 2.5 stars.
At the end of the 'story' I have to say this:
I'm really sorry if I'm 'hurting your feelings.'.. I'm sorry if you loved it and I'm saying bad things about it... I'm sorry, but that's my opinion and I can't lie about it... for me this was a REALLY slow reading, I was dying while I was reading it... I really wanted to finished it, I was counting the hours, the minutes...
“Her dad's voice boomed from inside the house. "I've got a Glock, a shovel, and five acres of woods, Johnson!”
This book is about a human girl and a alien boy. Basically Cara Sweeney was picked to host an 'alien' - Aelyx - into her house... to live with her family and with her (obviously, sometimes I'm pretty predictible...).
So Aelyx is a L’eihrs, like I said before it is a kind of alien... but they have an identical DNA to the humans, so I think we can say that they are at least half human...
