I'm going to sound like the biggest bitch ever but here it goes: I think this book has a great premise and exceptional vibe, but I sort of wish it was in the hands of a more skilled writer. Rebecca Ross is... fine? But my library hold for The Everlasting just came in and I can't stop thinking about what an Alix E. Harrow, or a V.E. Schwab, or a Laini Taylor would do for a book like this.

Oh shit

Lo completo, me completa

The prince is the stupidest mf of all time, and I cannot deal with it. Are you dumb?!? My man is ignoring red flags at an olympic caliber.

I need to temporarily dnf this one. I'll be back, but I need something mindless. I'm way too all over the place mentally to properly enjoy this.

This is going to sound crazy, but I think this pig is Joseph Stalin??? However, given his use of police force, he could (if this wasn't published in the 40s) be Boris Yeltsin, who OPENED FIRE ON A DEMOCRATICALLY ELECTED PARLIMENT IN 1993!!!

Thought 1: The main character's name is Axel, so I picture him as Axel from KAJ.

Thought 2: I cannot read more than ten pages of this book without falling asleep... unclear if this is the book's fault or if I just have a bad sleep schedule.

Sometimes I hear things described as "sauceless" as a way to convey that they are not just boring, but bland as well. At this point, I'm concerned that this book is ONLY sauce. Like yeah, it's flavorful, but a good plate of pasta works because it also has the essential noodles!

No one who sees this will have any idea what I'm talking about, but I would like the record to show that Relucia is the FUCKING WORST.

It's time BABYYYYYYYY

Oh no. I fear this may not be among Klune's finest work.
