The hourglass door

the best part about this book was the prologue. it was very well written—so well written i’m not even sure i picked up on all the detail. it gave me hope for the rest of the book…but i was let down. this book was very confusing to me and there honestly wasn’t much plot. most of it was trying for romance that didn’t turn out. i don’t understand was makes dante so important to abby. what is it about him other than his looks and the fact that he’s italian that she likes about him? vice versa as well: why does dante like abby so much? he was like in love with her from the very beginning for no reason at all. the ending as well makes no sense. i mean it does…but some things were just so needless in my opinion. 

nevertheless, you will catch me reading the sequel.
