Angela’s Reviews > The Raven Scholar > Status Update

Genuinely struggling with the idea that anyone out there really believes this book is "fast-paced." I am over here having never slogged a sloggier slog. Also, I hate how Neema's limited POV keeps getting interrupted by the Raven, who seems to exist just to tell us things Neema isn't privvy to. It breaks immersion every time and seems to enjoy spoiling iteself, as the audience learns the reveals before Neema does.

I can't help but feel like this book has no idea what it wants to be, and is sticking its toes in a bit of everything to figure it out.
