Lost by Sarah Prineas

3.0

lost a star due to a basic error or two by the author - spoilerish . . . . some people are just dead because they get turned into stone but if the character is important enough, they aren't? and it's not explained why, necessarily, at at least not explained well enough? This was really really poor story telling and left a bad taste in my mouth. Or maybe it wasn't explained why everyone else was dead the instant they were turned stone, perhaps if they, too, had been saved within moments of minutes of being turned, they'd have been saved? But no explanation, so . . . .

This was really poorly done. There was also a bit of poor editing and/or another poor storytelling error. Other than these things the writing is stellar but . . . it makes me wonder if I should waste my time proceeding when I have so many other books to spend my time on.
