Tragic Bonds by J. Bree
2.5
Uhm. What was that?
Another cliffhanger but this time tied to a character with no emotional attachment or real prior set up?
If I wasn’t trying to get through my physical TBR I would probably series DNF here.
We got no trigger warnings, no apologies for abhorrent behavior by the damaged one, just immediate forgiveness.. which look. I get it. Maybe some people liked that. But I really didn’t. I’m missing the together moments with Gabe and Atlas and feel like we’re trending down a path of focusing mostly (almost exclusively) on Gryph, North and Nox.
I’m tired of the hearing about their bathrooms and tile.
At one point Oli gets the whole plan, CAN THAT BE SHARED PLEASE? because all we ever see is Gryph and North being in meetings but sharing nothing. Oli has one of the most powerful bonds yet she’s kept in the dark? No wonder her bond overreacts to just about everything. I’d be fucked up too my dude.
Also there’s a whole lot of side questing happening for the last book to be the size that it is. There’s nothing I hate more than plots that look like Swiss cheese. You don’t have to develop extra side characters if they aren’t going anywhere. 🙈
Sigh.
