legraham 's review for:
House of Flame and Shadow
by Sarah J. Maas
I guess I miss the old SJM…
I honestly think she needs to stay out of Urban Fantasy and stick with High Fantasy - that’s her bread and butter.
I think Bryce is annoying and her character arc is weak, Hunt has no solid personality and is so wishy-washy it’s bothersome. They are nothing like Aelin and Rowan, which you can tell she was going for.
Characters I liked in past books I hated and dreaded their POV when it came around. The plot felt scattered and then rushed and was honestly downright weird at the end.
I found myself yearning for glimpses back into her old worlds because I just couldn’t take Midgard anymore.
It’s getting 3 stars because as disappointed as I am with the book as a whole, it had plot lines I enjoyed. Lidia is by far my favorite and she kept me reading and wanting more. A couple other honorable mentions were Jesiba (way too small a part IMO), Aidas, and Hypaxia.
Ithan, Tharion, and Ruhn can all be gone if it were up to me and Bryce and Hunt can lead the way.
