Fourth Wing by Rebecca Yarros

2.0

The most generic fantasy book ever, felt like I was reading a first draft that needed a lot of editing. Had high hopes but was let down yet again. It's my fault really, I let the BookTok community influence my judgment. I am so incredibly tired of cliches and it's not even funny how this book is a literal amalgamation of them, can we for once NOT have a (for the lack of a better word) pick-me as a protagonist. Violet gave me headaches. Not one of the character's were well developed, Xaden was pretty much the very typical male lead and not in a good way. The story was so rushed and so unoriginal, honestly felt like the author just wrote a fanfic of every popular fantasy book ever. Please please stop writing books like this.
