《Book reviews *Requests Closed*》'Oxymorons' by TheEnigmaticPhoenix
Advertisement
I should tell you that I was really confused about the word 'Oxymoron'. English isn't my first language, I thought it meant 'Moron who wastes oxygen'. But it didn't fit the context.
Then I tried to find a definition that sounded correct to me for ten minutes. Not finding anything that fit. Just started reading.
FOUND DEFINITION OF OXYMORON ON THE FIRST PAGE.
Ahem. Anyways.
By the way, I lied to you. The book is a collab between @TheEnigmaticPhoenix and @alicejpctter
About the book: apparently, an oxymoron is two contradicting words (ex. Genius Moron). Juniper Holmes is an oxymoron. Noah Lee, CEO of Ubisoft, is not. Or is he?
The characters and plot are... oxymorons. They're original clichés. You get me?
What I mean is, the heartless CEO kind of stuff has been used many times, but I hadn't read one like this before. Even when it contains clichés, the book is still fun to read.
GPS, perfectly fine. Don't change anything, friends.
One little thing: the characters regularly have discussions with their brains. I know it's done for the lolz, but it kinda makes the characters look like they all have multiple personality disorder (you know what the Dutch word for that is? 'Meervoudigepersoonlijkheidsstoornis'. Can you pronounce that?)
On the other hand, we have the same shitty sense of humour, and I can appreciate that. Kudos for that!
Rating: 7!
