Negative Positive
Title: I really disliked it
Review: I just finished "winter garden" a few weeks back and was thrilled to find out a new Ashworth book was coming out, but this was not what I was expecting. The entire jaw bone plot was really silly, as other reviewers mentioned it made no sense that Ned would be disgraced by someone stealing the jaw, nor did it make any sense the *revenge* Ned intended. And for me, this plot was boring as sin. What was the urgency? It wasn't like Ned was a spy or a ambassador, we all have our personal career setbacks but the book made it like it was a devistating loss on par with losing a limb.Then I found the romance dull and lifeless as well. I could see little reason for the pair to fall in love. I didn't even make it to the last chapter which, I was shocked to discover, I wasn't too disappointed about. I hate to give a bad review, but this one really should be skipped.
Is the review positive or negative?
