1. Sarah - 2/5 Stars - I was really disappointed with "Song of everlasting magic". I had heard so many great things about it, but it just didn't live up to the hype for me. The characters felt one-dimensional and the plot was predictable. I also found the writing style to be lackluster, and it failed to engage me throughout the book. Overall, I felt like it was a wasted opportunity and I wouldn't recommend it.
2. James - 1/5 Stars - I can't even begin to describe how much I disliked "Song of everlasting magic". The plot was convoluted and hard to follow, and the characters were unrelatable. I found myself constantly questioning the author's choices and couldn't understand why certain events were happening. The writing style was also confusing and felt forced. I wanted to like this book, but unfortunately, it just didn't work for me.
3. Emily - 2/5 Stars - I had high hopes for "Song of everlasting magic", but it fell flat for me. The pacing was off, with the story dragging in some parts and rushing through others. The world-building was also lacking, and I didn't feel fully immersed in the fantasy setting. Additionally, the romance in the book felt forced and unrealistic, making it hard for me to root for the characters. Overall, I was left feeling underwhelmed and wouldn't recommend it to fellow readers.
4. Mark - 3/5 Stars - While "Song of everlasting magic" had its moments, I ultimately couldn't connect with the story or characters. The writing was decent, and there were some interesting concepts, but it failed to hold my attention. The plot seemed aimless at times, and I struggled to see the relevance of certain subplots. I can see why some people might enjoy this book, but it just wasn't for me.
