In fact, it is one of my very favorite categories to read I enjoy it so much. First, I want to be clear that I love YA fantasy. There were a good number of parts that I enjoyed, but there were also some big issues starting with it not being the book I thought I was getting. Thanks for being patient with me everyone. Hopefully I can use this time to catch up on a bunch of reading and get back to my normal reviewing self soon. The ones I do write might be shorter in length, but it will all depend on how I’m feeling that day. I’m typing this one handed which is not fun so I’m not sure how many reviews I will be popping out in the short term. I am doing good now, so no worries, it’s just going to be a little longer of a recovery than expected.
Had a slight complication and instead of the ten minute surgery I was promised, it was over an hour in the operating room. After much waiting, and complaining, I finally had my carpal tunnel surgery this week.
Thank you so much, orbit books, for the ARC! its very reminiscent of some great books like ‘there will come a darkness,’ ‘wicked saints,’ and ‘all of us villains.’ so if you enjoyed those, this is something you can be looking forward to! i was also pretty bummed that this wasnt as adult as i thought it was going to be - its just YA dressed up a little bit.īut even with the little hiccups, i liked this more than i didnt.
i felt very conflicated while reading because i was enjoying the story, but i just couldnt wait for it to end. there is a lot going on plot-wise, but the pacing is just sooo slow. overall, the storytelling is pretty top-notch and theres a lot to like about this.īut man, i just cant get over how dragged out it all feels. the magic system is also super cool, the world-building is unique, and the different heirs feel like real people. and that kind of immersive writing definitely stays throughout the story. its the right combination of mystery, imagery, and darkness. I will say this book starts off with a bang. This is wayyyy too long for a first installment and its definitely YA, not adult, but im pretty sure i still liked it overall?
