Book Review: A Rogue of my Own

Sep 18, 2011 23:39




I’ve read a lot of Johanna Lindsey’s books and while the majority of them I liked, there were some misses for me so I was a bit hesitant to pick this book up seeing that the synopsis didn’t really catch my attention that much. But I decided to start reading it anyway. 
Story wise, I’m not too impressed as it was a very basic plot and it was okay, not the best and not the worst that I have read. There were some grammatical mistakes that I think should have been looked at before getting this book printed.

What really stood out for me in this book was the Heroine, Rebecca Marshall who will not take shit from anyone; not from her boss and certainly not from Rupert. She stands up for herself which is something I really enjoy in a heroine; she isn’t someone who neither is bitchy about her opinion nor is she a pushover.

Rupert was okay, he didn’t stand out for me a lot but he wasn’t terrible either. He handled situations realistically, I mean I could see men reacting the way that he did in the book.

The side characters were that interesting except for the characters of Nigel; Johanna Lindsey certainly got my attention with how she made his character but I was disappointed that she didn’t develop him further

Rating: 2/5 (It was okay)
