A review by rachel___mae
The Prettiest One by James Hankins
3.0
I have mixed feelings about The Prettiest One. I picked this book up as my Kindle First read for the month, and based on the reviews I was seeing and the premise for the book, I really expected to enjoy it.
It wasn't as amazing as I was hoping for. This was a solid 2.5 / 5 stars for me.
There were parts of the plot that went against logic, and if the reader can look past those moments, it's an enjoyable enough read. I had trouble connecting to the main character (who is referred to by so many different names over the course of the book). The one character I did find myself liking was Bix. I particularly liked the bantering that happens back and forth between Bix and Josh. I found the plot twists to be predictable, and the story didn't pull me in enough to make me overlook that fact.
