Beautiful Creatures by Kami Garcia
My rating: 1 of 5 stars

I just had to write this review because I have no idea why so many people are fascinated with this book. There is even a movie now!
There is absolutely nothing about this book that I liked. Nothing. I couldn't even understand some parts of it.
So, if you are not from the south of America, I wouldn't recommend it to you. Like-at all.
All those customs that we read about, all those people, history... Everything is so...local. I don't know, maybe people from that part of the world would find this book interesting.
I've been waiting and waiting, reading and reading, but, hey! Nothing interesting happens. A strange girl moves to town. Boy likes her. He doesn't know what she is, but he'd like to find out. No one wants to be her friend. He does.
And, how many times does Lena say words-'you wouldn't understand'? Too many!
Every detail is explained, every breakfast, lunch and dinner. I wanted to pull my hair out so many times!
I've even read the second book hoping that I'll see something that I couldn't while reading first and, what did I discover? Even more boring book! I ended up hating Lena, Ethan, Link, that girl whose name also starts on L (am I wrong?), Amma and everyone even more.
I won't be reading Beautiful Chaos anytime soon, thank you. There are better books to consider.
