Mystic City Series Review of Doom
Review of doom, huh?
"Why do you say that?"
Answers myself: Because these two books sucked butts.
I'm an evil bastard. And I'mnotsorry! And yes, I intentionally did not space those words. Punch me.
I mean, okay, I could be a little bit nicer. But. This book was advertised as being like X-Men. So, I'm going to say no. No I won't be nice. Stop yourselves, kids, your about to listen to a die hard X-Men fan complain about a book that was said to be like said X-Men.
Let. It. All. Burn.
Okay, okay. Containing myself. That was a little too much.
So, Mystic X-men-Rip-Off-Wannabe City, and the second book Toxic I-Wish-This-Rebellion-Was-As-Bad-Ass-As-X-Men Heart, by Theo Lawrence. Both are stupid. Both suck. It's really just a shitty version of Romeo and Juliet chewed and spit up, shitty cardboard characters supporting the dumbest, plot hole filled plot ever. Ever.
So, the book basically follows rich girl ass hole Aria Rose, who is the daughter of some jerk politician. She wakes up one day engaged to her dads rivals son. OHMYGRAVY. So, the rich ass hole is saved many times by some mysterious dude...aka Hunter...aka a mystic. YAWN. YAWN. YAWN.
The story is just mega boring, and is even more boring when it gets to the second book. So, in the first book, Aria's memory was actually erased, and before then she was in a relationship with Hunter, whose mother is a mystic just like him, and who is campaigning against Aria and her fiances family. Because people hate mutants...oh...whoops...I mean mystics. Seriously. Even using a word that starts with m?
KILL. MY. SOUL.
Anyways, her memory is back towards the near end of the first book. Whoop Dee Do. You think she was boring without her memories? She's boring as crap with them too. But something sucky happens to Hunter at the end of the first book, and so the second book is all about him being an ass hole and Aria being an ass hole, and some best friend of his saving Aria's ass.
#Ariacan'tdoanythingforherself
Aria sucks as a main character. She's lifeless and boring. Many times do people think she's a rich jerk, and yes, yes she is a rich jerk. She's like a cardboard cut-out. Reading the second book was pure torture.
Maybe I'm just a cold ass jerk, but neither of these books gave me any feels about anything. I feel like my brain lost a little something after reading this book. Now that's tragic. That gives the feels.
I want all of my time back. These books sucked. Don't advertise it for fans of X-Men. Like...WHAT?
NO. YOU. ARE. NOT. X-MEN. YOU. SUCK. BUNS.
Speak the truth. Alright?
These books ranked in at a solid 1 star out of 5. I would give it no stars, but that's just rude. And it's a 1 star for both books.
LLAP, I'm pretty mad booknerdians.
Lots of 💙and 🍵,
