Review: The Broken Road


The Broken Road
The Broken Road by Sean Michael

My rating: 2 of 5 stars



Sweet and romantic but also overly long and complicated. There was absolutely no need for this story to be told in so many pages. Absolutely no need for me to read so many chapters about their younger years, then some more about puberty, then their 20's...I felt like a lot of this was just to fill some pre-established word count and just plain unnecessary. Also made the story incredibly ansgty for no good reason. The thing with Brian and Lee? Another aspect that didn't do much for the plot because Brian died and after an enourmous amount of angst West ended up confessing he had never felt as good with Brian as he did with Ardie so why putting him in the story at all? So we could see Ardie whining about it? And Lee? Another unnecessary aspect I suspect is only present for shock like Brian. So basically...a more simplistic plot would've been greatly appreciated. This just made my head hurt.
