What was it about this book that made me like it so much that I’d give it 4 stars? Well, that’s hard to pinpoint, really. I suppose, then, that I should just list what I liked and what I didn’t like and hope that you, dear reader, can see that you really should read this book.

Forbidden is an emotionally charged book. It’s a story of loss, of heartache, of trials and tribulations that no child should ever have to go through, and it is the story of a love so fierce that nothing and no one can stand in its way.

The general premise of this book is good. The author’s writing is decent and it seems the editing job was nicely done. In fact, the only thing about the book that was bad is that it was just…bad?

Borrowed Beauties #4
September 15, 2011 by ·
On the 12th, I decided enough was enough. I’d been stuck in the house for TOO LONG and I needed to get out – even if I had to drag the Geekling down a flight of stairs and around the massive apartment building and across the street to where my car sat, forlorn and alone, […]
