Welcome to Litsy!

His arms clamp around my waist.
The last thing I see before I‘m dragged underwater is Reeve‘s horrified expression.

It‘s a slow burn of a book, but honestly. The ending made it worthwhile. I recommend. Although I will knock part of it and say. It needed less of Smoke. He‘s just a bad guy, to be a bad guy. Most of the book he just wastes time on in his own petty world. Made the book feel like a slug fest whenever his chapters would pop up.

I liked this book and these characters but I felt like at over 800 pages there should have been more action Or something it was too long , the last quarter of the book made this a pick for me or it would have been a so-so

Used some bookshop.org store credit to get the light novels after learning the story isn't complete yet in the manga! And handed all my assignments in, finished last night, so time for a chill weekend and some time with these. 💙

What a wild ride. Definitely happy I picked this one up and it was worth the hype! I sped through the last two hundred pages. Onto the next story!

It was a good book! I don't normally read fantasy books so I found it hard to get into it, but it was a pleasant book to read on occasion. I probably won't continue with the series though.

Ultimately, this is a book that I thought I‘d devour but it ended up taking me ages because it wasn‘t quite what I was expecting. The premise is fantastic but the supporting characters are undeveloped and under-utilised so it was hard to really care one way or the other about how everything unfolded.

That said, the writing itself was beautiful, and I will definitely be trying another Allison Saft book at some point.

This book introduces us to a new kingdom within the world we‘ve been enjoying. I had a little trouble switching characters and having to basically world build again in a new location, which meant it was harder to get into the book for me, but overall I enjoyed it! I was less than thrilled that this book, like the first of the OG trilogy, ended with our MCs separated. I hope it‘s not a pattern with the third kingdom trilogy books too. We will see!

This book has me in a choke hold! I'm only halfway through, and I have realized that I might need to read everything this author has ever written!!
