The Thing with Feathers by McCall Hoyle
1.0
I was pretty disappointed in this book and only finished it because I am cramming to finish my reading goal. I Now understand what people mean by very little plot or character development because this book had it. The characters either had very little development or what development they ended up having was crammed and rushed into the very end. I also don't want to sound insensitive but the way the main character was reacting to her illness, epilepsy, was a little overdone. While I'm sure having epilepsy is a very devastating thing to live with it shouldn't be that hard to Simply tell people that that's what you have it's not something that would affect your friendships that bad I would assume again I'm not trying to downplay such a serious illness it's just that the feels that the character was it displayed in reference to telling people about her illness was that of something I would have expected from a person with schizophrenia or HIV or something that directly affects the person in contact with you if anything you would want people to know that you're epileptic so that they can help you if needed. A lot of the scenes with the male character and the female character were at times cheesy and cliche. actually most of the themes in this book were pretty cliche.
