I feel lied to.
This is not a stand-alone and I thought it was.
And unfortunately I don’t have enough interest to continue with the series. 🥲
Overall I thought the plot was interesting but it’s very complicated and the immense amount of world-building could probably fill a whole notebook on all the gods and types of people etc. I still don’t have any sort of grasp on any of it.
The romance was kind of meh - and was based around this concept of a fate-thread that kind of gives the impression of insta-love…. Honestly I don’t feel too much for any characters in this book.
There was a lot of talk about violence and kindness and the use of violence to meet goals. It was all very interesting and upper level but also a little tedious at times. Sometimes I couldn’t understand a character’s motivations for their actions and many changed sides a lot?
All in all, I don’t think this book is bad - I also don’t think it is my type of read either. So it could easily appeal to a lot of other readers.
