This was a new cover for an older title – and I could tell (that it was an older title). The writing let me quickly know I wasn’t going to make it further into the book. When I say that I could tell it was an older title; I mean the characters were so stereotypical. Like I can deal with a mean girl but only if she’s interesting other than just being mean. There was also too much world-building and it wasn’t done in a good way – just, pushed onto the page. I want to be interested enough to learn more about the world, not wanting to just skim read because there’s too much info dumping going on. I have the sequel (as an arc) but won’t pick it up.
