AnimeJune's Obsessions
I love books, I love book blogging, and I hate GoodReads. Check out my blog at http://gossamerobsessions.blogspot.ca.
"These Broken Stars," by Amie Kaufman and Meagan Spooner
The Plot: Pampered rich girl Lilac LaRoux (who sounds like a clothing line for French aunts) and lower-class soldier Major Tarver Merendsen are on the same spaceship when it crash-lands on a mysterious planet. Wacky inter-class hijinks and psychic alien powers ensue.
The Good:
- Detailed setting
- Vaguely interesting plot development at the end
The Bad:
- Goopy romance
- Cliched characterization and society
- Danger! Danger! Angst overload! The plot - she can't take anymore!
- Boring, boring, BORING BORING BORING pacing
- Heroine is a dull moron
