Thank you to NetGalley and Sourcebooks Casablanca for the opportunity to read this eARC in exchange for an honest review.
While The Curse of Saints wasn’t a 5 star read for me, I did enjoy it and was excited to be able to read this ARC.
Unfortunately, I felt the same as many other reviewers in that this book just felt too long and too drawn out. It didn’t feel like there was much substance in such a long book and I feel that there were certainly parts that could have been omitted without the storyline changing.
Additionally, I felt that the frequently character switches were a disservice in this book, although there were some characters where I simply wasn’t interested in their storylines, so this might just be a me problem.
I was able to finish this book, though it took some pushing, and after doing so, I definitely think that book 1 was better than book 2, although book 2 was worth the read, just to see how the story continues, in my opinion.
