I really wanted to love this, because the story and the idea are great, but execution fell a little flat.

As a romantasy, the relationships were well thought out and easy to care about, but the fantasy element of plot was shallow and underdeveloped.
Raina can suddenly do things nobody thought her capable of and instead of testing out her abilities she’s taking massively risky (not actually necessary in the plot) chances?

Additionally, we were increasingly introduced to more of the gods and older characters in this book - Fia Drumera and Fleurie especially. Why then, do these multi-hundred year old characters speak like teenagers?

A great premise but needed work.

Much harder to follow than the first book, and her losing powers and then not remembering each other wasn’t it. Also to have Raina not remember Alexis and go back to hating him only to have her hop on his d*ck and fam in love again five secs later is like ??? What’s the point? If you’re gonna use an overused plot device, at least stick to it. I was tired of Finn’s bull too. He was useless.

Wow this was much more emotional and intense than the first book. That ENDING! Cannot believe I didn’t see that coming.
I need someone else to read the 4th for me first and let me know if it’ll be something I can handle or not
