temporary_escaper 's review for:

The Gilded Ones by Namina Forna

DID NOT FINISH

---

Dnf- I am sooo disappointed! This was so high on my anticipated reads list and I thought it would be an easy 5 stars! Dark fantasy with unique world building and diverse rep?! YES PLS. But honestly, this felt like a middle school read for me. There wasn’t much that hooked me and I found myself annoyed most of the time. I had to DNF because there’s other books I’d rather read.
