Проблема навіть не в тому, що частина книги написана у другій особі, бо, навіть якби у цьому не було сенсу, мені це все одно не заважало і було нормально. Мені не сподобався сам стиль написання навіть у тих частинах, де все було стандартно і для мене було занадто затягнуто.
Багато разів зустрічається слово “срака” — це плюс 😁
Багато жорстокості по відношенню до дітей.
Всі сексуальні сцени дуже крінжові.
Була виснажена після цієї книги.
Продовжувати читати трилогію не хочеться, вгамувала свою допитливість, прочитавши опис того, що відбувається далі і чим все закінчилося, у Вікіпедії. Бо сама історія цікава. Але для мене вона виявилася розчаруванням.

The world building was intricate and well thought-out, and the mysteries kept me reading and wanting to find out what happened. It’s also why I will continue the series!
The bad:
I wasn’t a huge fan of the second person used for certain perspectives, but I could work with it.
Trigger warnings explanation:
This book was pretty dark. Although the violence wasn’t graphically depicted, generally, there was a lot of violence against children. Which made sense for the plot, but was also difficult to read. There was quite a bit of sexual content, although usually not graphically described. Things like the breeding of humans made sense for the plot. It was referred to, but not described graphically. There was at least one moderately graphic scene involving a three-way. There were also two brief references made to sexual violence against children.
Conclusion:
Overall, it was an interesting, albeit dark fantasy with unique world-building and an intricate plot!

Should have read the content warnings before I picked it up. It just has way too many things that aren't for me.
