Review For The Eyeliner Of The Gods By Katie Maxwell

The Eyeliner Of The Gods By Katie Maxwell
Published By Mass Market Paperback 2004
Pages: 198
Finished July 11,2010
Themes/ Subjects: Curses, Egypt, Lies, Love

First Line: "
Cairo (Jan News): Sixteen year old American January James arrived in Egypt earlier this month and single-handely solved a centuries old curse attached to the mummy of..."

January James, a non-talented person, is sent to Egypt for conservation dig at the pyramids. She thought that this would be the best place to become famous and that she would hit it off right from the start but of course she was wrong. She meets a guy, who says hes really the reincarnation of an evil god, she hates but falls in love with, gets in hold of a cursed bracelet and finds her true talent.
This book was a very fast read. It doesn't have a lot of deep thinking since January got very jealous and shallow every single chapter. This was not my favorite books and i would not recommend it to anyone since the main character is a very agitating person and will get on your nerves.
2/5 Stars
