i want to preface by saying that this is not a bad series in the slightest! its world is well thought out and its characters are interesting and complex. i just don't vibe with what it is trying to do.
maybe it's unfair of me to do so, but i can't help comparing the memoirs of lady trent to emily wilde (which i love very much). in emily wilde the story is always centred around the fae-here it's whatever political conflict lady trent finds herself caught in the middle of, with a peppering of dragons. it gets to a point where it feels like a massive tease, every time the story diverts itself from the study of dragons to fictional foreign affairs i feel my brain yelling at me lol.
i almost want to continue the story purely because of lady trent, she's so interesting and i appreciate writing a character thatis resentful of motherhood . but i don't think it would be fair on me or the author to do so. ah well 🥲
