5.0
September 27
i sure do love jay kristoff's brand of edgelord fantasy but for a book inspired by french, l'utilisation des accents aigus et des accents graves était fucking weird

i wish i had a full version of this but i only have the 400 page sampler so i'm not going to give it a rating bc i could end up hating the rest of it lol who knows
this book has a v similar edgy aesthetic from nevernight and i am 10000% here for it
i really enjoy jay kristoff's ability to tell a story and here he's telling a story within a story and i absolutely fucking love it. the story has some jumps in time but i didn't find it confusing or jarring
i feel like this book just ticked so many things for me. even if they are kind of tropey and cliche, it's done in a way that doesn't bother me at all. i love the grumpy mentors, underdog come up, and morally grey characters.
i feel like gabriel had some really relateable and meaningful dialogue that just added so much depth to his character and i'm dying to know what happens to him and all the other characters
honestly i was expecting more bloodsmut lol but i guess that will have to wait until next month
