I think overly high expectations based on the author’s other series ruined this for me. Most of this book dragged, and the interesting bits felt like a splash of flavor to get me interested in book 2. 

The romance felt very trite and the supporting characters were incredibly flat. The setting/universe is really interesting, but it’s left so unexplored for the first half of this giant book. 

The ending is pure sequel tease. I really hate when authors can’t wrap up a book in a series well & rely on a cliffhanger 

I already purchased the second book along with this one bc I was feeling optimistic; I’ll read it to see if maybe things heat up.
