Finding Eden by Camilla Beavers

I have to give this book a 1.5 out of 5 stars

This review will have **Spoilers**

The story was amazing. I loved it.

I'm not sure how I feel about Eden, she's kind of an enigma to me. Like she's a strong character, but then she's being a damsel in distress.

Sahariel is, well I can't think of a good word to put here, but I like him. I wish he had kissed her sooner, but it all paid off in the end.

Marius, I can't help but feel that the relationship with him should have been explained more, but I understood that they were friends, but did she just randomly follow him without ever having spent time with him aside from in the war room and asking him his name.

My biggest complaint is the editing, or well more the lack of editing. I hit one that bugged me very badly,'what if I managered to mess everything up?' 'I was in a room with full of people'

I mean, these weren't even the worst, but these are the ones that made my eyes twitch because they were the starting ones for big collections of mistakes like that.

I would suggest this to someone who can stand all of the mistakes everywhere, and ignore them to see the good story underneath, which is why I couldn't give it a 1, but the spelling mistakes ruined it for me a couple of times having to go back and reread paragraphs multiple times to understand them, which did ruin the story a little.
