The writing feels a litttle bit off and the story predictable so far.. Since the world building isnt great at all and everything is kind of flat I find it hard to root for the characters

My next try also doesn’t seem very promising 💀

Ja ich weiß nicht irgendwie schreit das auch nach Pausieren… Ich bin nicht abgeneigt aber irgendwie ist’s mir zu simpel :(

Spannend und unterhaltsam bisher 😌 erinnert mich ganz doll an die Bücher die ich früher als ich jünger war gerne gelesen habe. Macht sehr sehr viel Spaß

Really good so far, its really vibey and full of dark stuff and you really have to spur your imaginiation along but I like it, I also liked this about her other work very much: The Scholomance Trilogy was a really great read for me and I think if you liked this than you will like that.

Also mein Problem: man erfährt nichts von den Charakteren bevor die Geschichte begonnen hat. Nicht wo sie herkommen, was sie so erlebt haben, wieso sie sich eben so verhalten, wie sie sich verhalten. Das machts echt schwer mitzufühlen. Außerdem wirkt es so, als würden unsere Charaktere absichtlich dumme Entscheidungen treffen damit der Plot in eine gewisse Richtung läuft

Schon düsterer als andere Kandidaten aus dem Romantasy Genre aber charakterlich holt mich das noch nicht so ab.

Oi what the fuck is the prince doing

I really enjoy the writing style but the Dragon not so much. He seems like such a dick

really enjoying it so far and especially now when even more depth gets added to the story

Ich glaub ich kann mir schon ganz gut denken in welche Richtung sich das hier entwickeln wird

So far so good, I really enjoy the writing style, the story flow and the characters. I have nothing to complain

So far so good, I really enjoy the set up and the writing style

I think this will be a DNF…

And they smoke weed ? Huh ?

What happened to Hello, how are you ? Instead we have instead sexual chemistry which someone stands above everything else. Oh and don’t get me started on this „world building“ if you can call it that

What I noticed about the writing style: it’s very simple, not filled with much descriptions at all. In fact there are so little descriptions of the surroundings, feelings of the characters, their looks or the way they talk that I notice the lack of it very much. Please set the tone of the scene, describe the tone of voice, give me something. That’s just way too simple at the moment

Buchclub Buch was sehr arg nach Shatter Me klingt

Whaaa nee doch keine Lust was ist denn die Tage los 😭 ich will doch nur was zum Lesen finden

Wird mal angelesen. Wenns mich nicht umhaut wird auch hier die ganze Trilogie aussortiert 😬

I don’t know man I can’t really root for a rapist

Seems cruel, edgy and like I started 2026 with a DNF ???

So far it seems a bit much edgy and dark

Ugh feelings developed too early! I want a bit of yearning thank you very much

My goal: start and finish this today so I can complete my reading challenge

Okay that really is funny and entertaining in the best possible way

I don’t think any of my friends can understand my feelings towards the Mistborn books. And that’s why they need to be made aware. For I am the chosen one, chosen to spread the word by gifting them all the first installment and forced to talk about it for all the gatherings to come. For many, many years. Until not one is left behind - without knowledge of this great book series.

And my love for Sazed is ignited once again. How can I make everyone read this story and make them see how great of a man he is ? He deserves so much more good god

Good to be back

Bin absolut gehooked und so sauer dass ich jetzt arbeiten muss statt das weiter lesen zu können. Hallooooo??? Ich habe ein tolles Buch zu beenden????
