Reviews for "A New Chapter Begins: Amulet Book 6 Announcement"
1. Jane - 2/5 stars - I was really disappointed with Amulet book 6. I felt like the plot was all over the place and the story didn't flow well. The characters also seemed flat and their actions didn't make much sense. I was expecting more action and excitement, but instead, it felt like a slow and confusing read. Overall, I was not satisfied with this installment in the series.
2. Mark - 1/5 stars - I have been a fan of the Amulet series from the beginning, but book 6 really let me down. The artwork, which was a highlight of the previous books, seemed rushed and lacked detail. The story didn't captivate me like the previous installments and felt disjointed. I also found the pacing to be slow and it was hard to stay engaged. It's a shame because I had high hopes for this book, but unfortunately, it didn't live up to my expectations.
3. Sarah - 2/5 stars - As a longtime reader of the Amulet series, I was let down by book 6. It felt like a filler book with not much happening in terms of advancing the overall plot. The dialogue also felt forced and unrealistic at times. Additionally, I found some of the scenes to be repetitive and it started to feel like a chore to keep reading. I hope the next book in the series picks up the pace and brings back the magic and excitement that I loved about the earlier books.
4. Michael - 2/5 stars - I was eagerly anticipating book 6 of the Amulet series, but unfortunately, it fell flat for me.
