I don't know why I'm doing this to myself at this point.
That past perfect narration.... my goodness😭!
Sometimes, the story is fast-paced enough for me to be un-bothered by all the "had beens." But then it goes straight back into stagnation again, and I just can't take it.
And again, it's not a bad book. I just don't fuck with past perfect narration. It makes me feel like pulling my hair out.

There's an apparent rot situation that should be really important.
Tell me why we're being subjected to Saeris and Lorreth going to a bar in the vampire land that's apparently not so safe. Shouldn't we be reading about the rot and how the character plan on fighting this?
I'm already struggling with the overuse of the past perfect narration guys. I need the story to actually move. Come on now!

I'm really trying so hard not to dnf.
It's not bad, but it's also not moving, and it's boring, and I'm annoyed because this is supposed to be better than quicksilver, according to reviews.
Please get better, dear book🥲
