3.83 AVERAGE


I’m leaning on a 3.5!

I liked the book at first but as it progressed, it turned out to be a bit boring for me. The book had flaws but overall it was a nice book. I did have some issues with it though.

FIRST: I don’t usually like reading too much romance in fantasy novels and this was not an exception. Mare had so many love interests. She had Cal on the left, Maven on the right, Kilorn at her back, and fricken Lucas at her front (good thing they didn’t do smtg there) I get that the author was trying to incorporate “ships” in the story but it got so annoying for me. JUST STICK TO ONE GUY MARE GOOD GOD

SECOND: Some of the dialogue didn’t make sense. Maybe I’m the only one who noticed it but it reaally bugged me a lot. One example is Maven. His character is described as calm and relaxed then he just goes screaming like a wild woman. It did happen to quite a lot of the characters. They kept saying a bunch of different things its kinda weird pls stop.

THIRD: The transitions were kinda confusing. Mare has such scattered thoughts. We’re in one scene then we’re in another so we really start to get confused with what’s happening. The author sometimes doesn’t really emphasize what in the present and what Mare was thinking about.

Seguimos apenas o pov da Mare num mundo dividido por duas castas (os Vermelhos e os Prateados) em que uns tem magia e aptidões e outros estão despojados delas. Um mundo onde os vermelhos são a ralé, a escumalha, que os Prateados escravizam mas difundem que tratam bem e que lhes dão tudo o que a um Vermelho é possível dar, já que são nada.

Flew through this in 2 days. Quick and easy read but also interesting and addictive. Didn’t want to put it down. Will definitely continue this series.
