tani's review against another edition
3.0
I felt like this was a case of an author having really good ideas, but not quite being able to execute them. I wanted to like Laela, but I had a hard time doing so, and I think it's mostly just that the writing quality wasn't quite there. The story itself was interesting, but characterization was not quite there. In general, it felt like a book from an inexperienced author. I will keep reading her work, though, because the ideas are definitely there. Just not the rest of the package yet.
lbrick363's review against another edition
This book started out very slowly for me and maybe I should have read past chapter 10, but I couldn't. The speech got on my nerves and I reareally didn't care for Laela. For someone who was practically on her own for so long, she was whining a lot and scared of everything. I just couldn't finish it.
