Five Dark Fates by Kendare Blake

(Going to try to keep this spoiler free) I might be more happy that I finished the series than anything else. It was a STRUGGLE. Nothing of consequence happens. Whenever someone gets hurt, two pages later there’s a magic fix that’s never been talked about before. When someone is unconscious for months and even the best healers can’t wake them, one character, who isn’t even a real poisoner, can bring them back in a matter of minutes when it is convenient for the plot line. This is so much of a problem that when a certain someone died, I fully expected them to come back to life pages later. Their death did not affect me at all because I did not believe it. It wasn’t until the very end of the book that I realized they were actually staying dead and by that point, I didn’t care.
