I’m sorry WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK ?!
She was gonna be a 3 star rating now after the ‘now my sisters are bearable my dad still gotta swing in and save the day in such a male way’ 2 stars
I can handle a lot of dumb shit
Not this dumb tho 👀

Fkn hell these sisters are UNBEARABLE

Idk if it’s because I’ve read it before or the prose is very ‘and then this happened, and then this happened’ but I’m a little bored 🥱

Here we go again…

Read it a while back and can’t remember why I didn’t continue the series…..was it because the BOOK AND TEXT ARE SO SMALL ? AM I FKN BLIND…
has been recommended I persevere

Oh GOD! Not Ione and the fkn window…

I was wondering how long I’d be able to stomach the multiple POVs…but I’m lowkey living for Elm and Ione rn

Well and truly invested.
It is good, very good…

Not as enthralling or moving as TKATM but it feels…heavier.

Also defs called the soul inside being the king…
But I wonder if duplicate cards makes a split soul 🤔

Ok, well NOW I’m invested but that took way too long

Fuuuuuucking hell
Glad I started with the Knight and the Moth and not this.

Close to DNFing MULTIPLE times before page 50….now we’re just getting into it

Oh, I’ll just read a little more…
2 hours later, eaten into time dedicated to sleep

It’s that kind of book.

I feel there was a page or 2 missing that really solidified the main relationship but 🤷‍♀️ it can’t be too perfect ig

Ok, so, NOT the king.
Such an interesting story.
Writing is poetic at points.

Starting to lay their attraction on a biiiiiit too thick and quick for my liking but 🤷‍♀️ could be worse

I’ll just read a little because I have to be up in 6 hours…..2 hours later 🫣

-I’m fkn hating the main guys name, even if that ISN’T his name
-Oh, God; they kill them don’t they?

Reads well.
Decent world building.
What’s the bet Rory’s the actual king ? 👀

FKN WHAAAAT and I mean HWWWWAT re actual meaning behind “Osha”
The set-up is so fkn bad. I have no feels for this other than I FEEL it could have hit so much harder if it was constructed and executed WELL!
The oracle mother? That didn’t see the dad’s death, her new marriage, or her daughter becoming enthralled… Yeah ok, ok 🤦 Not a very good oracle.

480 – Oh yeah SURE, feed and pet your fox for a whole half hour when you’re on a ticking fkn clock in a war where one of your so-called “friends”’ life is HANGING BY A LITERAL THREAD OMG.
p.487–489 – The rushed “oh right, the tattoos ughhhh”
They = true mates, which SHOCK hasn’t been a thing for the loooongest time.
Oh and THOSE ones are only for IMPORTANT couples but one ALWAYS dies?!?! STFU.

“I lied, you are a good thief” – is he alluding to his heart? Man, stfu.
Leading up to Ch. 31 where she says “friends” – who is she talking about? Ren? Carrion? Lorreth even? Whilst there’s mutual fondness, no one feels like friends.
Innir or Irrin? girl, pick and maybe edit the damn book.
“He’ll never forgive me if his sole reason for living…” girl he was RESPONSIBILITIES where he wanna die ?

Girl, where does it detail how she’s coming up with the alchemy /tests??
Not even a “here’s some ingredients and why I choose them,” just bang and no flash in the fkn pan, man.
p.313 – The first tent scene came out of nowhere. Things are lacklustre if there’s no build, for the love of god.
p.368 – “It’s a sex thing” – drinking blood makes your dick harder. Even as a euphemism, that is fkn dumb.

💙 p.152 – “Bad human” 🤣🤣
💙 p.157 – OK now this is a scene of mutual attraction I can get behind.
(They then ruined it by making it gross on p.158.)
💙 p.172 – NOW the character connection reads naturally.
💙 First near spicy scene turned thieveryyyy.

p.123 – we still aren’t liking it.

The Osha (butterfly) nickname…. 🤦

p.144 – Ask a man about his cock – girl.

Oh and the reaction to the “Osha” name – babe, relax, he’s said it like twice.

The next couple of pages where the writing is trying to get us to feel that she is into him feels forced.

😤She kinda h8 😤
> It took way too long to get into the story.
>The external world building outside of the main body seems irrelevant.
>The writing isn’t exactly janky but it is packed in so much that it doesn’t flow naturally.

Is the cringe in this book finally done ?? 👀
Still…..so well written; we might as well finish

Almost DNFd @ 40%….
Still considering it

It’s the script of a sitcom come to life, if you have the imagination for it.
It’s a too-long fluff filled story.
🧀 bordering on cringe
But it’s written well

Silly little book is…not so little…

>Bored until they demon-centric scenes
>Is there inconsistencies around WHEN she found the library ??
>Oh thank GOD; they’ve met IRL

Please don’t be bad, please don’t be bad~

👍
>Already winning with the detailed maps
>HELLP desk 🤣
>p28: first tears shed at the image of a memory
>ch9: alright get on with it oh they’re gonna meet in a chat room LEL…reads a bit cringe

I’m gonna revisit when it’s not 2am
