Review: Flight of Icarus by Caitlin Schneiderhan

 


Season 5 is coming at the end of this month and I am excited and also upset. Eddie was by far my favorite character in season 4 and to be honest, in the entire show. Joesph Quinn rocked that hairdo and quoting Lord of the Rings made me swoon. 

I had to do a purchase request at my library because they did not have this one and I was the first one to get it when they bought it. I am sad to say though, that I ended up giving this a 3 star. The beginning had me hooked. I could picture and hear Eddie and it was just chef's kiss. But then the whole plot with his dad and them robbing a weed truck got my anxiety spiking. I started skimming the end chapters because I knew shit was going to go down. Of course I knew that nothing would happen to Eddie.... yet.

I like the formation of his band that we got a glimpse of in the show. I like that it had Hellfire Club. The thing that was the most unrealistic for me was the principal blackmailing Eddie and threatening another students future if Eddie didn't drop out. I also think that Ronnie should have figured it out and done something legal wise since she is the student who was threatened and she wants to be a lawyer.

With the author being one of the people working on the show, I am hoping that some of this story will be included in season 5 about Eddie, especially Officer Moore and the dumbass principal. 

I also think that the sex scenes could have been cut out because honestly this book didn't need an underage sex scene with Eddie being the one underage and Paige being an adult.
