The Fire Within
I know this review is in contrast to the others that I have written, and I promise I'm not trolling here, but seriously,
this book sucks. I had never read a book that I honestly hated before until I came across this one. It's about this guy
stays with a family while he takes college classes. Then it turns out th efamily makes magic pottery, clay dragons in
particular. Then the guy sees some squirrels and makes it his sole purpose in life to protect them. I'm sorry but not
only is the storyline bad, it's not well written or executed properly. Sorry. #Truth Reviews:3.77 avg. rating |
