《Book reviews *Requests Closed*》'we were here' by westcoastdreams
Advertisement
For some reason, I had completely convinced myself that this story was about werewolves. I spent the entire first chapter thinking, "where the hell are the werewolves?"
Turns out the story wasn't about werewolves. Not all.
This story, written by @westcoastdreams, is about Tatum Avery and Eli robertson. They both have a tragic past. They're both teenagers. Go figure.
To be honest, the plot and characters don't deserve the most originality points. This story is exactly what you'd expect from teen fiction. It's okay though. Author at least does her best to keep things mysterious, even when it's really not that hard to figure out what might've happened to Tatum.
The GPS is good, aside from a few misplaced commas and periods. This doesn't ruin the reading experience though.
The book has only 5 chapters so far, so if you don't mind the clichés, this'll be a great short read!
But maybe, just maybe, it would be better if it had werewolves.
