The Song Rising by Samantha Shannon
dark
tense
slow-paced
- Strong character development? No
- Loveable characters? No
- Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes
1.25
Finally finished even though it was such a slog and even though this is apparently the shortest one
It got easier once I realized that Paige is Harry Potter. She's a main character who thinks she's smart and she isn't. She makes astonishingly stupid choices.
Also if she mentions her curls one more damn time I'm gonna scream.
I keep waiting for this to be the amazing series everybody says it is and for it to be as good as her other series. It's just not, on both counts.
