Really bad writing quality, I can’t believe the ratings are so high on goodreads. I’m just expressing my opinion, so unless you also didn’t like it I’d not keep reading this post, because I hate when people talk shit about my favorite book lol… Anyways, the main character, Violet is the most annoying insufferable whiny girl I’ve everrrrr read about. The “chosen” trope was honestly very overused, Violet apparently has a bone Illness but Rebeca never mentioned it on the book. So her fans and her thinks that I have a crystal ball to guess?! I just thought she was very ANNOYING. She could at least actually train and improve instead of waiting for her 7ft boyfriend to save her or poisoning her enemies please. Also the thunder thing while they have love is very cringy sorry, I hated it. The world building is horrible and the plot is messy. I wanted to know more about the school system but the author just skipped through it. The best part of the book is for sure the dragons. The characters are very basic with no personality or depth…they felt like exactly what they are (fictional). I like books that makes me feel like I personally know the characters. That’s more of a rant than a review. And apparently the second book is even worst according to some of my friends… And the author is very problematic, honestly Sarah just Maas 2. But to call her Sarah j Maas is actually an insult to Sarah because I actually like almost all of her books…
I honestly liked it, but never thought it was the pinnacle of literature of anything. There were many problems with it, but for me, it’s one of those books for when you just want some easy reading escapism where you can just turn your brain off and have some fun.
I’ve never seen riverdale, but I imagine that’s the same turn your brain off vibe so your description is probably very accurate!
Yep, I wasn’t expecting award winning literature from it. I actually quite enjoyed it.
The writing wasn’t fantastic, but honestly, I thought it was fine. It was just that perfectly run of the mill writing that fades into the background and just lets you read. It wasn’t bad enough to really pull me out of the story too much.
