Synopsis:
Ethan Sutcliff seems like a normal seventeen-year-old—at least that’s what he’s trying to portray. In a secret society run by the Supernaturals, Ethan is what witches call a Bender. Benders are Witches’ Guardians, who are able to control a witches’ ability, bend it, or move it away from harming humans. In Ethan’s case, he is able to bend the Earth element. But at the age of fifteen, he lost all connection to it, and the reasons behind it could only mean one of two things: His Wielder is either dead, or hiding out somewhere.
Alex Burgendorf has been living in her aunt’s locket for the past sixteen years with her mother—a Fire Wielder, and her father—a Water Wielder. For sixteen years, her parents vowed to protect her, and they have, as she is the last Earth wielding witch. However, time is running out. Alex must find her Bender, or the fate of the Supernaturals might be at stake.
Review:
So, i requested this ARC, bc it sounded so interesting. I love some YA, paranormal, fantasy books. But I almost had to force myself to read through this book.
Some of the story line, & characters didn't add up. Some were drawn out. And i really didn't care for any of the characters. I hate saying that, because almost all the time there is at least one character that I like, and care for.
I did find myself rooting for Ethan and Alex at times, but i think it was only because it was forbidden.
I hate to leave bad reviews. I wanted to like it. The idea was promising. But in the end this book just wasn't for me.
I received this ARC in exchange for an honest review.
