Daughter of the Moon Goddess: A Novel

I can't really tell if I hate or like this book. It was very captivating at the beginning, but as you continue the series it feel like most of the events just become pointless. SPOILER: This is shown very much in the way that the MC is always confused between 2 boys, and then ends up loving the one who died of them. I was like: huh? It feels sad that you -as a reader- loved the first guy and felt HE deserved but the MC is just like: Nah, imma go love the other guy with the grey eyes.

If you're bored, go see a movie, don't read this book because it's really a waste of money. I don't want to be disrespectful, but if you want to waste your money, there are other useless things that you can buy! In reading the book , I was like, "No, thank you!"
