#BookReview: Breakout by A.M. Rose


Synopsis: Six days. 

That’s the amount of time until Lezah’s execution. 

She’ll die never knowing what got her locked up in this godforsaken prison in the first place. Her only chance of survival is to escape. Except the monitoring bracelet that digs into her wrist, the roaming AI, and the implant in her neck make freedom close to impossible. 

Her best chance is to team up with the four other inmates who are determined to break out, even if one of them is beyond (gorgeous) annoying—oh, and in for murder. But he has a secret of his own. One that could break Lezah if she finds out, but could also set him free. 

Figuring out how to work with him and the rest of this mismatched group of criminals is the only way Lezah will survive to see the outside world again. 

But nothing in this prison is as it seems. And no one.

About the Author: A.M. Rose is the writer of young adult novels of all genres as long as they have a hint of romance, the drinker of too much coffee (with way too much coconut creamer), and lover of all carbohydrates. 

Currently, she lives in Houston, TX with her three boys (yes, her husband is in that count) and three cats. When she isn’t writing about swoony boys or ways for her MC to get into trouble, she is an avid reader, critiquer, (is that even a word?) and trampoline enthusiast.

“I aim to give readers the same thrills I got from Veronica Roth and Suzanne Collins. And the same romance I got from Stephanie Meyers and Jennifer Armentrout. When my teenage niece called me after finishing one of her favorite series upset, I promised her I’d write her a book, and well, here it is.” 

A.M. Rose is a graduate from San Diego State University with a BA in Communication and a minor in underwater basket weaving. (Okay, maybe not the basket weaving part.)

My Review: First off lets talk about this amazing cover!! This is the real reason I grabbed this title.  But shortly after starting I realized that this wasn't going to be what I thought it was going to be.  I liked the story but a few things just didn't work. The first being the romance.  I think this story would have worked a lot better if the romance wouldn't have been in there at all.  We really didn't need it and it pretty much didn't serve any purpose at all.  The next issue were the info dumps.  Those were horrible and long.  I wished that they would have either been summed up in the start as a prologue or shortened and spread out.  I don't mind learning about things but when it basically stops the story to do it it just kind of sucks.  Lastly, this book was fairly on the predictable side which really sucked.  


The characters were fine and the story itself was pretty engaging but with the above mentioned things it just made the story kind of meh for me.
