A Queen of Broken Realms by Brynne Weaver

Saint (The World of the Narrows #0.5) by Adrienne Young I received a free copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review. I don’t know, it was alright, but I wasn’t as much of a fan of this as the previous books in this series. I’m not one of these people so it left me feeling a little overwhelmed by the sheer amount of random characters showing up to save the day. Which I guess is fine if someone read the previous books, and therefore cares about these characters. What I thought was the most elegant separation from the previous series was completely undone here and characters from there owned this book, to the point that Ronan and Reyna had about 5 chapters out of 32 for themselves. I feel like this book was a mess in the sense that it had way too many players for such few pages and the point just got lost somewhere. In all honesty, I can’t decide if I read this at the wrong time/with not the right headspace or what. They were the only reason I kept skimming as the other characters were either forgettable or a little irritating.Īs always, a big thank you to HarperCollins and Netgalley for the ARC.Ĭourt of Death and Dreams (The Forsaken #3) by Meg Anne I really liked Ina and Skedi as characters, and their whole plot line though. For a long while I felt like I was reading in Elvish or studying for an exam, until it switched around midway, but by that time I was skimming the chapters.

The plot itself and the portrayal of the gods was good and the reason I still gave this 3 stars, the writing/prose on the other hand made it a really painful experience for me.

I really wanted to love this and was so excited when I got approved for the ARC (as it was one of my anticipated releases), but I was struggling a lot with this. Unfortunately, I fell with the minority who didn’t enjoy this story as much as the others. That’s a wrap on 2022! I’m so excited to see what books I can read and what I can accomplish in 2023 🥳 Let me know in the comments if there are any books you’re excited to read, and what you’re looking forward to this year.Genres: adult, epic fantasy, adventure, queer I hope the next book will be a bit longer and have more stuff happen because I could literally sum up the plot in one sentence and you wouldn’t even have to read it. Also, Kate’s little jibe at the floating door debate from the Titanic was funny.

It felt like the story ended really quickly and unexpectedly, like it was just the end of a chapter not a book, so I was left hanging and feeling blindsided 😅 I did still love getting back into the world of the Weirdies though and I enjoyed the story while it lasted. It felt like nothing really happened and I didn’t realize the book ended when it did. However, I didn’t enjoy this one as much as the first one. I absolutely loved the first book and I was so excited when I saw there was another book in the series.
