The Dark Heroine by Abigail Gibbs

Is there anything better than a clearance book?

Usually my answer would be no...however, this book was not the greatest. 

It was all over the place and made sense about half of the time. I get the overall plot of the book but I was getting plot whiplash from the back and forth; of which could have been smoother.

What drew me to this particular book, of all the clearance books, is the fact that it is set in London. I love the language and the cultural differences. It usually makes for an interesting story.

The plot of the story was fairly predictable. I did like the prophecy piece of the story line. You just don't read a good prophecy plot anymore. The books were clearly set up to be a series due to the fact that much was left open and only part of the prophecy was revealed and explained. 

Perhaps the next book will be less scattered...

Happy Reading!!
