Starlight
by Olivia Wildenstein
There were too many moments where I had to majorly suspend my disbelief. There were waaaaaay too many dumbass moments for both the hero and the heroine. Their lack of knowledge really pissed me off, because it showed how their parents were dealing with them, basically keeping them entirely in the dark about so much they needed to know. Even in the end, when they finally learnt the whole truth about themselves, I was annoyed they forgave their parents so fast for keeping them in the darkness for so long. I wish the stupid Venezuelan story hadn't been dragged out for so long. The serial killer thing turned out to be basically inconsequential.
Claire the big-bad-bitch had been SUCH a major issue in book 2, seeming soooo powerful, yet in this book, they resolved her issue with barely any effort. It made zero sense. Like, the two just don't compute. As usual, there were plotholes galore about how this world worked. It basically felt like the story could have been 200 pages shorter and not lost anything significant. Felt too damn long for the payoff.
