azraelasylum 's review for:

House of Earth and Blood by Sarah J. Maas
4.0

If this book wasn't so painfully long, I would have given it 5 stars.

This is what I have to say about the page count:


Honestly it took me so long to just reach the big event at the beginning of the book. All of the stuff that happened before it, was just so damn boring. I had no interest in anything. But after shit went down, then I picked up more interest in the book and was able to pull my attention together long enough to finish the book.

Overall it was good. I cried like a baby at the end. But getting there was really hard. So many parts of the story just didn't really matter overall.

Also after this first major event of the story, all the other twists and turns I saw coming. Almost nothing else in the book surprised me after that. Sadly all the other major events became pretty predictable.

Yes this book has it's issues. More so that just the long winded pages. Other reviews voice those issues pretty well so I am not going to jump into them here. I liked the book. I might re-read it one day. Maybe. But I will happily continue on to the next book and eagerly wait the release of the last.
