faelsafe 's review for:
The Ruined
by Renée Ahdieh
fast-paced
After the first book was so good it was always going to be a challenge to keep things moving with the same quality. By the end of the second book I still had hope that they'd be able to weave everything together in a satisfying way. By the end of the third book I had serious doubts but knew I'd see it through.
This book is a perfect example of when an author needs to stop Yes And'ing themself. There is no satisfying conclusion, even outside of the romances. The world building continued to stack on top of itself until it was a mess of threats which each should have been more difficult to manage but ended up one by one being taken out with laughable ease.
