Did not finish book. Stopped at 11%.
I LOVED Legendborn! To this day, its been the only YA novel that didn't frustrate me into a DNF.
So I was really excited to read the sequel before the third book drops next month, only every issue I had with YA books seems to have crept up into this one. Massive page count despite very little plot movement, characters getting thrown at the reader with little development , and oh, hello unnecessary love triangle! Right on schedule! Maybe I could put up with all the flaws, if there was something in the book to make me excited to read towards, but this book's plot is looser than my bowels after Taco Bell night. Just massive info dump and info dump, for thing that truly don't even matter. I almost feel this series should have been a duology if the second book is 90% just the plot twiddling its thumbs and a cheating "romance".
Legend born was a 4, this has to be a 2.5.
