If anyone is interested, I’m selling this book!
I wasn't really interested in Sing's story. It's just not really interesting, and I think it might also be because I'm not into music (making). Although it did start to pull me in a little after she went out into the forest the first time and found the Tamino. Then when her and Nathan started to cross paths more and develop a friendship, it had me.
The cover. It dosen't even relate to the story. Not once does Sing wear a red dress. Not once does she run through the woods in that dress. The title is wrong. It gives off the impression that this story is creepy, wrong. Not in the slightest, and it dosen't suit the story. There is singing, but there is no /strange sweet song/. The title should actually be Angelique, or Sing and Angelique, or something along those lines since this story is pretty much all about Sing and the play Angelique. I kind of like The Felix's story, and the way it's written is really nice, full of mystery and wonder, leaves lots of room for imagination and questions. Kinda of wishing the whole book was focused on The Felix, and if there is a whole book dedicated to the Felix, please feel free to let me know! I don't like how we see less and less of the Felix the further we go into the book, and also, I would like to know how Tamino came into existence. Would that mean that Felix somehow had a baby, or the Felix and her brother and Mother weren't/aren't the only ones of their type out there and she found the Tamino? Nathan's side is somewhat interesting- Not as boring as Sing's, but not as interesting as the Felix's. It was a little confusing how this 'story's' timing was different from the rest in the beginning, but makes sense afterwards. However it does get interesting after we learn who Nathan really is, that's when things start to get good and we dive deeper into the ocean and see all the wonders. Zhin seemed pretty bitchy, she was not only rude, but she also tried to put everyone down and make a point that because she's privileged she's better than them. I didn't like her at all, and i feel like she was an unnecessary character and was pretty useless to the story except for one or two little things that happen. It's so obvious from the beginning that Ryan's a playboy, I mean, he was eyeing both Lori /and/ Sing at the same time, how could Sing be so blind? I would give 3.5, but I can't, so it's a 3.
**SPOILERS FROM HERE ON**
She shouldn't have been so shocked when she found Ryan with Zhin.The part after Nathan dies is so confusing, like what the hell, he and Tamino just died and Sing's standing in the lobby with playboy like heck didn't just happen? The author has some explaining to do. I feel like it has something to do with the fact that technically Nathan and George shouldn't really exist and should be long dead, so after they die life goes on like they were never there, but there isn't really any proof of this and Adi Rule still has explaining to do.
