last book i even remember to track on here because storygraph is better :)

lol get you a friend like alice who will sit through 400 pages worth of info dump from one guy in one morning just so she can defend you from white fragility and not get her feelings hurt

not me writing an incredibly similar plot hook for my tabletop RPG world smh

hi if you need to introduce the concept of generational trauma to a white teenager who really likes the mortal instruments, this book is for you

why?

There is so much info dump in this book that i have conditioned myself to skip over walls of text while reading it and as a result i will likely just completely miss this battle lol

Sel, Tor, Sar, Russ, Fitz, Whitty, Bree can we PUh Leeeeaaasssee chilll out on the nicknames this looks ridiculous

Hi i still hate this book :)

??? So why couldn't this have worked earlier?? I'm confused

The scene where Bree finds out about her mother is exactly like the scene in the last Jedi where snoke tells Rey she is just a rando and then gets instantly murdered except the villain in legendborn is just everyone's trauma and the author's decision to just throw away the southern black girl magic she talks about for like only five chapters

This book will be my undoing

Patricia: Bree i want to teach you rootcraft
Patricia: *teaches Bree literally nothing but takes her back to slavery to make her angy because white people steal magic*
Bree: I would like revenge on the whites for killing my mother because I am angy
Patricia: Whoa there champ. That's a bit much I'm gonna have to stop being your therapist now
Bree: ?????

Bree there's always a BSU how did you not _know_??? this is a public university???

Oh Tor and Sar are lesbians? Why are their named shortened!!! this makes me so angry
