Broken Souls and Bones

3⭐️
This had me at Viking, Magic and enemies to lovers. Unfortunately none of that kept my attention throughout this book.
I immediately was overwhelmed and underwhelmed by the magic system in the first 25% of the book, so much that I almost dnfed it. The magic system is super unique but isn’t clearly explained and a lot is glossed over which makes it hard to comprehend. It felt like almost an afterthought a lot of the times.
The Nordic terminology used was not explained clearly for those who aren’t familiar with that time period. I found myself googling words to understand what the item or action was, taking away from the story.
For being an enemies to lovers story, even that wasn’t very believable. The fmc went from hiding to being almost best friends with the “enemy” in what seemed like the blink of an eye. There was a lot of inferred character relationship building but without any actual action to back it up, it was not very believable. Overall none of the characters really stood out and didn’t really have much of a personality.
