I fucking love this

It’s heating back up, but DEFINITELY still didn’t need to be this long. Honestly, it seems obvious now but I didn’t expect the Luc twist. Pleasantly surprised!

Dude this book is so long and so repetitive and at this point, unless something crazy happens in the last 25%, this book could’ve been less than 500 pages.

KISS KISSSSSSS PLEASEEE FOR THE LOVE OF SOL

Kinda lagging, was getting really repetitive there

Ngl things are kinda confusing, I’ve gotta start looking up some of these terms that I’m forgetting

on god bro?

Rereading some parts before i jump back in on this one

I cried when Yolanda died and I’m not afraid to admit it

I don’t think the old people are going to make it to the third level 😫 The plot armor has to end at some point

I know people are gonna die, but it’s gonna hurt

I don’t want the old people to die :( This is supposed to be a fun book

I find the, not the action writing itself, but environmental description while action scenes are happening to be a bit lacking. But thats my only qualm so far! I haven’t had a book just be FUN to read in so long!!

I cannot tell if the Fool is some benevolent ageless god or a teenager with a complex

People are saying in reviews that this pivots away from the Red Ships, but I wonder when that is cause it’s almost at the end and everything I’ve read so far ties back to them in some way. It’s politics people…

It’s a fun read, but the ‘no-one-can-possibly-hurt-me’ trope is kinda boring. She got away practically unfazed from something supposedly 10x stronger than Amarantha? With NO HELP? Boringgggg

I genuinely don’t think this book was written to be the best novel ever written, so I’m going to read it as such. I don’t have the expectations of a high fantasy with intricately woven court politics, I have the expectations that this is gonna be a little trashy romantasy — and those expectations are gladly being met.

Reads like a professor wrote it, and not in an amazing way, in a ‘I’m better than my peers and my students and I’m going to use the most laborious vocabulary imaginable to sound pretentious’ kind of way.

I’ve been reading reviews of people saying this is extremely slow — I think it’s simply excellently paced world building. This is the stepping stone for SEVERAL high fantasy trilogies, of course it’s going to be ‘slow’.

I so hope that the second installment in this series moves past this weird beastiality subplot. It’d freaking me out…

Samantha is so better than this that she doesn’t realize she and everyone surrounding her, including Ava, are the exact same people. They’re all human, with problems, and they’re all fucking fake about having problems. Or maybe, their problem IS that they’re fake. Like Samantha….

I like the father’s wife, I think she’s a character that will learn to care within her own reason.

Denji my man, you shoulda kept that same I-hate-this-bitch attitude, for your own sake…
