Official Review: My heart in pieces by Andrea Osborne
My heart in pieces by Andrea Osborne is a romance book that details the life of a young woman, Andrea. The book opens when she is a naïve, twenty-one-year-old who had only been living in the United States for two years. She is shy, a little awkward, and not much for parties. However, she is convinced to go to one. At the party, she meets Maurice. Andrea is immediately attracted to him, as is every other girl, though she feels like she does not have a chance. However, Maurice notices her too. Will their relationship work out? Is their attraction enough to make up for the multitude of differences between the two?
This book is a very quick read. It is less than fifty pages long, so it can easily be read in one sitting. However, it is not the most interesting book. The ending is made clear from the beginning, and the plot is predictable. I think Osborne should have tried to add a little more suspense or increased the stakes because it was not a satisfying read. I knew what was going to happen, and there was not much in the way of twists or breaks of expectations. This was my least favorite part of the book.
The book also was not well-edited. There were many grammatical errors in the book. Most of them were formatting issues such as spaces where space was not needed. It made reading a bit harder because it was visually jarring. In addition to the grammatical errors, the writing was bland.
The character of Andrea was my favorite part. Osborne did a good job of giving her a strong character arc. She started as a naïve girl and grew into a strong woman. Her development seemed tied to her relationships, which felt a little cliché. However, her character was dynamic. This was my favorite part of the book.
Overall, I rate this book 1 out of 4 stars. I think it has potential and could be an inspiring story. However, in its current state, I can not recommend it to any readers. It is poorly edited and felt flat overall. The character of Andrea has some potential, but there was no substance to the book. The book’s writing was very basic and did not provide interesting details. It simply stated what was happening and nothing more. I think if Osborne spent more time editing and adding details to this book, it would be a nice read. However, as it stands now, this is not a fulfilling read.
