A review by alexsanford13
Golden Son by Pierce Brown

Did not finish book.
I felt like the first was a slog. As many have said he doesn't show much just kind of tells. Feels more like he wants to just throw around roman philosophers and history, with lots of violence and a very high amount of sexual violence that really just really soured the mood. I get there may be some in dystopias and things. But it felt like it was a lot. And having to read about two 16 year olds being so lustfully at the start felt odd to me too. I get in their society it was a thing but again, focusing on it so much felt like a choice that made me uncomfortable.
