The Fearing: Book One - Fire and Rain by John F.D. Taff

1.0

DNF at 50%. Interesting premise ruined by poor writing and cliches.

The whole high school plot line made me feel like I was reading Twilight. I think this paragraph says it all:

"Sarah was definitely NOT that kind of girl. She was a strict under-the-radar flyer. She wasn't always wearing makeup. Her hair wasn't always done, her clothes not the latest fashion. She was rarely photographed, even by herself, and she had few friends interested in snapping selfies with her."

This is in contrast to descriptions of the cheerleader/popular girl.

Additionally, a woman in the book who is strong willed and opinionated is basically described as a harpy.

John Taff needs to take off his fedora and take a class on writing women/writing in general.
