Maestra

This novel is incoherent nonsense. There is a GLIMMER of an interesting idea about rage and class that is destroyed by utter claptrap. The plot makes NO sense. It is choppy. The protagonist hates fat people, or maybe it's the writer, and that's fine, but in the early going it's quite distracting. Th Leggi tutto

I'm going to start from an unconventional place - the ending. (Don't worry, I won't give anything away.) For me, I can love a book but the ending will ruin it if I don't feel it's done well. Alternatively, as is the case for this book, I can like a book alright but the ending makes it so fulfilling

After an uneven start, this became surprisingly entertaining, though it's not a "good" book by any stretch of the imagination, mostly because of the abundance of humorless, meant-to-be shocking sex. But it's enjoyably sociopathic (or psychopathic, depending on how you interpret the MC's behavior), a Leggi tutto

Long story short: «Έι, είδα ότι διάβασες τη Maestra, να το διαβάσω; Στο instagram λένε ότι είναι καλό.» Ήμουν ανάμεσα στο να γράψω ένα τεράστιο «χαχαχαχα» έκτασης τριών παραγράφων και στο να σας πω ΣΟΒΑΡΑ γιατί δεν πρέπει να χάσετε το χρό Leggi tutto

I wanted to keep my hopes up after seeing the reviews but… honestly, this wasn’t it for me. I just couldn’t bring myself to like the main character at all and the plot was overall… not boring but… sorta weird? I know it’s some erotica novel but damn, not even the sex parts lasted more than 2 pages. Leggi tutto

Like a person hypnotized by the evil Count Dracula, I knew what I was doing was wrong, but I was inexplicably compelled to keep going until I was finished. But in this instance, the compulsion was to continue reading Maestra by L.S. Hilton. On some level I believe I would have been happier just open Leggi tutto

Háganle un favor a este libro y bájenle el hype . A mí me prometieron una novela tremenda, llena de lujos y, sobre todo, intrigas dentro del mundo de las subastas de arte... Algo muy White Collar , vamos. Pero ni lo uno ni lo otro... Maestra cuenta la historia de Judith Rashleigh, una mujer que trabaj Leggi tutto

Maestra is fabulous darling. There has been a lot of hype surrounding this title, the first from Bonnier's crime imprint Zaffre, so it was with great interest that I dived into this one and I was immediately and unequivocably absorbed into Judith's world - an artistic world in more ways than one. Some Leggi tutto
