Should you read Lore? | LORE BY ALEXANDRA BRACKEN BOOK REVIEW *SPOILER-FREE*

[@ScientistsReadingWorld]

I read few chapters on NetGalley and i was hooked but i understand that you say it's kinda sad not know more about the fight and conflit

[@KistiReads]

yes! I felt I needed more to get a better grip on the Agon world!

[@libraryserpent]

I totally agree about the lack of backstory and explanation about the punishment, but it was a thrilling read! I enjoyed it! Really great review that hits everything you might want to know about the book :-)

[@KistiReads]

Yay thank you! Yes, it was certainly thrilling and an enjoyable read :) I think it'll be a popular one as more folks read it!

[@SteveTalksBooks]

Had you not said it was your first review I would have never known. You did a great job.

[@KistiReads]

Thank you! It was really fun to do too - looking forward to your reviews!

[@SteveTalksBooks]

@@KistiReads I recorded one but I wasnt happy with it, going to try again this weekend

[@KistiReads]

@@SteveTalksBooks I know the feeling! I've re-recorded a bunch of videos (and actually this review you just watched was also recorded a second time!)

[@Johanna_reads]

Excellent review! You were so thorough on each strength and weakness in this book. While choosing a familiar setting such as NYC is much easier than creating a whole new fantasy world, it sounds like the author could have done much more to bring readers into the experience. So strange how negative emotions are not counted as emotions. I don't understand that either. I really enjoyed hearing your thoughts!

[@KistiReads]

Thank you! :D Yes, I felt like there was so much more backstory we didn't get to see that would've woven a much better story!

[@megancorbett5783]

I've been struggling to pick up Lore after reading the prologue even though the premise sounded right up my street! When I saw you had a review I knew I had to watch it to see your thoughts - sounds like some interesting points so hopefully I finish the book soon

[@KistiReads]

When you finish it let me know! It was certainly fast paced and sucked me in, but def some cons there too

[@pagesinthestars]

Didn't know about this book until I saw this review, definitely going to check it out!

[@KistiReads]

It was fun and fast-paced for sure - I hope you enjoy it!!

[@faereads614]

LOVE greek mythology! The last YA inspired by greek mythology I read was lifestyles of gods and monsters. That one let me down but I'm eager to try this one out!

[@KistiReads]

I haven't read that one! Lore is def a fun read just with a few caveats like I mentioned. If you read it, I'm excited to hear what you think!

[@faereads614]

@@KistiReads Will do!

[@TheBookishMom]

I just got this in my OwlCrate Box and I am kind of excited to read it. It sounds good but I am a bit skeptical since I like more worldbuilding and backstory.

[@KistiReads]

ooooh I had a feeling that's what would be in the Owlcrate this month! So yes, if you enjoy more worldbuilding and backstory this is lacking in the big picture sense - but you do get a good backstory for the main character, Lore and a bit for Castor too.

[@mariaali2563]

I felt it lacked in descriptions. Maybe I'm just picky. But I give it a 4 in total.

[@KistiReads]

Agreed - I think she relied a lot on us knowing the city etc which I didn't enjoy!

[@bookswithv]

Hunger Games meets Greek Mythology, instant buy! Great review Ally 😁

[@KistiReads]
