This was really good for the first 50% but the second half of the book really was a mess to me. The romance was definitely a sub-plot and the two MC’s arcs were at the forefront. That being said I couldn’t relate to either of them and I liked them both less the more I read about them. The various other sub plots involving all the other characters were all very underdeveloped. On top of that, we spent so much time talking about Anthony when I think he was such a shitty person that I was getting really annoyed about all the conversations about him that kept happening every chapter. I liked the writing and the premise held promise but the execution fell very flat. ...more
This has no plot to speak of BUT an insanely cool world and kaan vaegor who deserves 2 stars just for existing. And I liked the writing. Other than4/5
This has no plot to speak of BUT an insanely cool world and kaan vaegor who deserves 2 stars just for existing. And I liked the writing. Other than that, I don’t know if I’m interested in the sequel because this book did a whole lot of nothing. Zero reveals were made and I suppose the epilogue could be shocking but I’ve read so much fantasy that it really wasn’t for me. I wish we’d seen 5x more of the aether stone because THAT seemed super cool and just more of the girl who wears it in general because she seemed super interesting. Raeve was funny but SO stubborn that I wanted to just smack her against a wall. She wanted to be naïve and for what??? She says knowledge is power and proceeds to run from it at every chance she gets. Like she never once thinks of the positives of knowing her past life…. And also I get she wore a veil in her last life but did no one ever see her???? Ever?? Or hear her because her voice is the same and it’s odd how no one ever mistook her for elluin before or how she just never learnt of her? Maybe because she’s stupid but oh well. Kaan deserves much better than Raeve. And I get that she’ll probably have an emotional arc for development but I don’t see how she can make herself more likable to me. The romance isn’t there yet because Raeve refuses to feel emotions so you get yearning from Kaan that was chef’s kiss but that’s it. The sex felt odd to me and I would have preferred a true slowburn until she accepts who she is. The world as I said was top notch and not confusing at all for me, it’s pretty straightforward. The lack of plot was annoying because Raeve doesn’t do much the whole book, things happen to her and she plans stuff that she never does. I also am unsure exactly how the plot will expand because we haven’t really met any of the tyrant kings yet so I’m undecided as to ‘are they really bad or is there a more evil villain?’ Did we need veyla’s POV???? No not really. She was fun but I still don’t get why we needed to see her do anything at all? I may pick up the sequel depending on its reviews. I liked this, but not sure if I loved it enough to pick up another presumably 700+ paged book. ...more
Amazing as always. Kept me on the edge of my seat and I loved all of the characters even more, if possible. The romance was so sweet and the char4.5/5
Amazing as always. Kept me on the edge of my seat and I loved all of the characters even more, if possible. The romance was so sweet and the character development is just perfect! So sad to read the last book but super excited as well ...more
