One Quarter Villain by Cori Cooper – Review by Jessica Stone

Wow, what an interesting book. Kudos to the Author Cori Cooper, for this interesting read.

First off, when I started reading I decided pretty much right away that Maddy, the main female character was not my favorite, I couldn’t understand these weird ticks that she had and her critical eye and quickness to aggravate and be on the offensive. But as the book went on I realized that all these things that I originally found unappealing set the character up for what her main story would be, the reveal of her character and who she really is. All these quirks that seemed weird to me suddenly became who she was and endearing qualities. And it’s wild how the author set the book up to work like that. I think the same goes for the male main character Leo, except I found him endearing, goofy, sweet, all the things I felt missing in Maddy I found in Leo, her best friend, the yin to her yang.

Her character work in this book is amazing, her focus on the main characters and making them relatable without making them predictable and the story predictable is what made reading this book so awesome. I honestly did not see where this book was going but I greatly enjoyed when I got there.

This book is part of a five part series but I read can be devoured as a standalone, the author has stated though that the main characters from this story will make an appearance in later installments in the series. I can’t wait for the next book to come out, this was such a fun, laugh out loud, sweet read.
