I felt like Ithan’s plot had so many flaws in it. I understand it is to give him a decent amount of character development, but I felt like it could be done without the excessive self-deprecation and serious damage to other characters that ended up not amounting to much.
I also felt like there were really good plot resolutions, but we jumped there. There was so much build up for the ONE plot in CC1, and I liked that. This had like a million plot lines that just resolved too quickly for me. It felt rushed and tidied up too quickly for me. There were a lot of emotional parts to the story, but honestly, I wasn’t drawn in like 1 & 2. I definitely cried in the first two, and I swear I’m not a monster, but I didn’t feel attached enough to shed one here.
I feel like this book could have been really good if we teased it out and added details to the separate POVs and plot lines. The books could have even been shorter, but more detailed in the plot holes.
It kind of felt like the marvel movies where the first ones were SO good and the quick resolutions left this book feeling almost cheesy.
