A Sea of Stars

I can't decide if the quality of Baker's books have gone drastically downhill or if I've simply outgrown their storylines and writing. I think it's the former, but either way, it's a disappointment. Her last few have been almost painful to read, though this was slightly less so than The Fairy-Tale Matchmaker. The main problem I had with this one, besides overly childish dialogue and a silly plot, was that this is the same (silly) plot as at least 3 of Baker's other books. I spent the majority of the book wondering to myself, and occasionally innocent family bystanders, "Haven't I read this before?". Millie and Audun Emma and Eadric Annie and Liam's wedding's plans are thwarted by natural disasters/inclement weather/pranks/hostile takeovers/kidnappings, etc caused by witches/dragons/nasty kings/trolls/others with bones to pick, etc.

THEY'RE ALL THE SAME.

VARIETY IS THE SPICE OF LIFE.
