Not a single girl was allowed to walk past the heroine, Riley, without Riley making insanely bitchy comments. ❌ Genuinely incredible levels of slut-shaming. I only got 20% of the way through, but here’s a list of all the plot holes, clichés, and general irritants I found within that 20%. Nothing new was brought to the table in Broken Wings. Tropes are tropes for a reason – we like to read them, and I don’t exclude myself from that ‘we’ – but you need to bring something new to the table with them to avoid mediocrity and obscurity. This book was so cliched that I’ve read essentially the same story 58373 times before. I know the authors’ dedication at the front of this book was specifically to tropes, but damn. Read if you want to know why you should save yourself the money and time. Don’t read if you’re a diehard fan of this thing.
WARNING: I systematically detail everything I disliked about the book. Beck wants nothing more than to break my wings, pin me to a board and watch me writhe. He calls me Butterfly, but it’s not a pet name, it’s a threat. He draws me in, and strips me of every defense I have. I didn’t want to be part of this billionaire-boys-club.
There used to be five, but one of them died, leaving a fifth position that I now fill. They rule my new town, my school, and with more money than God, there’s very little out of their reach.įour gorgeous, perfect, scary boys.
