Wolf Healer by Huckleberry Rahr
Did not finish book. Stopped at 0%.

A biddy on fb said this book was BETTER than Mercy Thompson- THE werewolf/shifter series....maybe the biddy was blind or had a 3rd grade reading level, I don't know, but I counted 5 spelling errors within the first ten pages. Not good writing, not good not good not good

Edit: the biddy said mercy Thompson was a rip off of THIS series, let me just make sure everyone realizes how INSANE that comment was

ACOSF who????? Sorry but THIS is my canon now. 

It really is a damn shame when your fans know your characters better than you do. Like if Fanfiction authors are writing CIRCLES around your published bullshit...maybe you should do some inner reflection on your career of choice. IDK. That's just me. If *I* was SJM and *I* read this fic, I would burn every copy of ACOSF out of pure shame. But maybe that's because I enjoy good writing, original plot lines, characters with motivation and agency, and war criminals getting their fucking karma (I am The Original Rhysand H8r).

The Atlas Complex by Olivie Blake
Did not finish book. Stopped at 25%.

i will be honest. i don't think im smart enough for these books. not that they require higher levels of thinking to understand per se, just the ability to wade knee deep through 6 insanely selfish egotistical idiots internal monologues about how great/terrible/smart/stupid they or the other five are with little to no breaks for actual plot to enjoy
