The Poppy War by R.F. Kuang
dark
fast-paced
- Plot- or character-driven? A mix
- Strong character development? It's complicated
- Loveable characters? It's complicated
- Diverse cast of characters? Yes
- Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated
4.0
Incredible and then insane. Beware this book gets very dark.
I loved the first half of the book. I was completely sucked in and almost certain it would be a five star read.
And then the pace just got faster and faster until it felt rushed and slightly under developed. You are not as completely engaged as too much has happened so quickly.
Then the ending is such a shock you're left somewhat confused.
But very well written and I will finish the series.
