The start was very fast paced which I normally enjoy but I feel like I didnât have enough time to care for the main character.
In regards to characters I didnât really like Brie as I felt she was trying too hard to be like other girls, but did t really have a personality? Itâs mentioned she likes reading towards the middle of the book, but it seems like itâs only used as a plot point, not really part of her character. It the start it also had a seen where she is a thief but it doesnât really go in depth explaining how she got her skills and is not truely mentioned much, and as a thief she isnât as subtle as I would think, therefore this seems to only be a trait added that wasnât really thought through. Overall I thought Brie was very one dimensional and superficial.
Towards the love interests I donât really have anything to say they seemed like the typical love interests in these sort of books.
In regards to plot I wasnât that interested however the last 100 pages it started to pick up a bit so I enjoyed it a bit more.
Also wanted to comment that for a book the revolves around magic the magic system wasnât very well explained and the rules seemed to contradict themselves quite a bit. The system just seemed to change whenever needed to benefit the characters. For example the goblins needing a price for information but answering many questions for one lock of hair? It just seemed like Brie needed to know something and the author couldnât figure out another way of getting it to her.
No hate to the author just my opinion.
Moderate: Kidnapping, Emotional abuse, and Sexual content
