Children of Virtue and Vengeance by Tomi Adeyemi

1.0

I had problems with the first book in this series, but Children of Virtue and Vengeance continue all those problems and amplify them. The fact that these books are written in different perspectives per chapter make little difference, since every character's voice sounds the same. Characters continue to make bad decision after bad decision. The romance portions feel forced. The magic is continually used as a deus ex machina to get past any problem that comes their way. Consequences for the characters are not as severe or long lasting as they should be, often even being reversed quickly. I was willing to give this series another shot, but I should not have. I need to get over my adversity to DNFing books.
