1. John - 2 stars - I had high hopes for "Silvester and the magic pebble" as I am a fan of fantasy novels. However, I was disappointed by the lack of depth in the characters and the predictable plot. The main protagonist, Silvester, was one-dimensional and the supporting characters were forgettable. The magical element of the pebble was not explored to its full potential, leaving me feeling unsatisfied. Overall, I found the book to be underwhelming and it did not live up to my expectations.
2. Sarah - 3 stars - While "Silvester and the magic pebble" had its moments, I found the writing style to be lackluster. The descriptions were overly simplistic, and the dialogue felt forced and unnatural. The pacing was also inconsistent, with some parts dragging on while others felt rushed. Additionally, I found it hard to connect with the characters as their emotions and motivations were not well-developed. Despite its intriguing premise, the execution fell flat for me, and I was left wanting more depth and complexity in the story.
