I hated both love interests, but the main character made me unreasonably angry. The entire time, it felt like watching The Vampire Diaries. Both Brie and Elena Gilbert had the constant narrative of "I don't want this power, but I want these two brothers and I don't want to choose." Maybe I just prefer sound decisions, but her constant back and forth and emotional manipulation of both love interests was infuriating.
The book was definitely romance heavy because certain aspects of violence and war weren't as detailed as the other Fantasy books I've read since first reading These Hollow Vows.
Overall, I did not enjoy this book. Both books made me so angry. I had high hopes for it as this duology was my first time reading Fantasy ever. Unfortunately, I was disappointed.
