The Lost God by Sheila Masterson

wildmage's review against another edition

5.0

I really really liked this book. The character's kept me guessing and we definitely didn't end up where I thought we were going to. I struggled to put this book down which is the mark of a compelling story/characters for me. I'm looking forward to continuing the series!

Things I Liked:
- Cece was relatable and I really enjoyed her POV
- Multiple POV but not too many

Things I'm on the fence about:
-

Spoiler

I don't always love a love triangle, but this one has been well done so far, I can't yet see the outcome of who she will end up with in the long run and they each have pros and cons

Good fantasy book and some parts certainly hit hard but it just never fully sucked me into the story. Also not a fan of the ending.

Y’all this book!!! It is so dang good.
We have a stabby, wildly independent FMC who can absolutely hold her own in any situation.
We have a love triangle.
We have Gods and witches.
We have high stakes.

This book started out sweet and great. And then things got INTENSE. The new love interest annoyed me a tad at first. A little too pushy with the flirtations. But then it grew on me.
The character development for all characters was off the charts. Our FMC is so strong and she never stops fighting for what she thinks is right. Nothing gets in her way or makes her give up.

Once I was hooked with this book I was HOOKED.

I CANNOT WAIT FOR BOOK 2!!!

3.0

I'm a little conflicted...early on the dialog felt a bit YA, but it improves as the story develops. There is both forbidden love and instalove, and the focus is definitely on the romance over the plot for the first 50%. I wanted more information about the magic system and the history.

I thought the premise was interesting. It was a slog for me and it just seemed to keep spinning and not going anywhere.
