A review by velvetyaverage
The Hundred Loves of Juliet by Evelyn Skye
Did not finish book. Stopped at 75%.
I am 75% of the way through this and we are still only getting crumbs of a plot. They are doing nothing to combat the curse. The ex-husband drama is getting more development than the centuries long curse meant to be what the book revolves around. Any chemistry between them is strictly because they are soulmates and not because of any on page development. We’re just told that they’re madly in love. I don’t hate Helene and Sebastian but neither are very interesting or well-developed. I understand the idea is that we should live in the moment no matter what and not let worries about the future bring us down but not a whole lot is happening in the moment! And from what I’ve seen in other reviews I’m only going to get more annoyed from here. I mean really? He had one job: tell Helene about developments with her ex and he IMMEDIATELY chooses to not tell her. It’s not a terrible book but life is too short for me to spend another 3 hours on a book I am this uninterested in.
