Beyond by M.C. Winkkle
2.5
This eARC was provided by the author in exchange of honest review.
I have mixed feelings about this one. Overall, I just don't think the storyline was for me.
The main character, Stella, is very strong, hard-headed, and brave. She was a pretty good character. I wish I could have seen a bit more development in her character, though.
It took me a couple of chapters to get into because I felt out of place. Almost like the book started mid-story, so I was a bit confused.
The ending was a bit triggering for me. Although there were TW's at the beginning, the ending was a lot more than I had anticipated. I think there maybe needs to be a stronger warning at the beginning and/or an age-restriction. I'm perfectly fine with cursing language in books, but the self-harm was almost overwhelming for me.
M.C. Winkkle's writing is great and it is a well-written story. However, I just think this plot wasn't for me.
Thanks again to the author for providing me with an eARC!
