Reviews for Model Undercover

- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5Model Undercover: London by Carina Axelsson felt like a very contrived novel. Axelle Anderson is a fashion model, but she prefers mysteries (solving them). It has been three months since her last case in New York and Axelle is itching for a new mystery. Axelle is hired by the Tallulah Tempest. Her brother, Gavin, is a fashion photographer and he was recently attacked. The police believe it was a random mugging, but Tallulah believes it was a deliberate attack. Her theory is proven when Gavin’s flat is also searched. Someone is searching for something! Gavin had given Tallulah a flash drive which she gives to Axelle. It contains photos from a shoot on fashion designer, Johnny Vane. There is one pic of an old photograph on the flash drive. Why does someone want to hide this old photo? Axelle sets out to find out what is so important about the photo and who is behind Gavin’s attack.Model Undercover: London is a young adult novel. Unlike a lot of young adult novels, this novel is definitely not for adults (too immature). We get pages of Axelle thinking (about herself, her looks, boys, modeling, and a little bit about the mystery). The novel felt fake. I give Model Undercover: London 2 out of 5 stars. The novel lacked depth (lacking in details). I just found the book to be boring. There was not enough mystery in this mystery novel. There are other books in the Model Undercover series, but this novel can be read alone. Information from the other books are repeated a few times in this novel (especially at how well Axelle did at solving the mysteries). I received a complimentary copy of Model Undercover: London from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review of the book.
- Rating: 1 out of 5 stars1/5I had not heard of this series but when I got the chance to read this book I jumped on it. It sounded fun. Yet, I quickly found myself wondering when the story was going to start. What I mean is that four to six chapters in and there was a lot of conversation but I was left waiting for Axelle to start investigating the case. A lot of conversation about nothing of importance. I than started to skim the book until I got to this part. Ok, I am not impressed by Axelle's skills as a crime solver. She did not pick up instantly on clues and would state the obvious. This is one book that I did not personally for myself think it translated too well for adults like other young adult books. However the younger readers will probably like Axelle and this world that the author built.
