Very good book

Revisado: 09-08-24

I have enjoyed the series as a whole and how it all connects. The voice acting is amazing, and I do enjoy all the different voices and a few accents! The author did make some improvements in adding more variety when using the phase “she said”… I was a little disappointed that there wasn’t much spice, but the story didn’t need it to be interesting. I appreciated the interpersonal dilemmas/obstacles as they were very relatable. I did find the over-powered nature of alot of the “good guy” meta humans to be boring and wished there was more perceived danger and suspense. Overall this book had me on the edge of my seat more than the first 2, bravo!

Lost me sometimes

Revisado: 10-25-23

Good concept, though it struggled to hold my attention at times. I usually prefer adult novels, but one of my favorite series is YA (when women were warriors). I fell asleep at some of the more “action packed” parts.

Barely managed to finish it

Revisado: 10-25-23

Was very boring, fell asleep a couple times while listening. Voice acting was good with unique voices for each character. The plot and author’s way of describing things was too shallow and bland. I had a similar issue with the first book as well, but I thought it was just me. I was wrong. The whole book could have been concluded in half the time, too much filler.

Barely held my interest

Revisado: 06-22-23

To be honest I bought it before I realized it was written by a man. And, I am reminded once again why I don’t read books written by men. As a woman I want books written from the female gaze. I want strong female characters with interesting and witty personalities. The characters in this story were one-dimensional. The women were petulant, damsel-in-distresses. The men were arrogant and had hero complexes. The narrator made it even harder for me to enjoy the story. There were some good aspects that made the plot interesting, but mostly I felt like the storytelling was lazy. Everything happened TO the main characters more than they actually DID anything. 1 star for finishing it, 1 star for creativity.

Great chemistry

Revisado: 06-01-23

The chemistry was there from the start with the two main characters, which did make it hard to believe they hated each other even for a second. The story is good, the characters unique and likable. The book does end in a cliff hanger just in case you would prefer to get this book when the second one gets released. I don’t like cliffhangers which leave the story incomplete. I will definitely buy the next one when it comes out!

Interesting elements, but too drawn out

Revisado: 05-21-23

I did not like how the story is drawn out over a few years, I felt like I was just waiting for the second shoe to drop for 80% of the book. The last couple of chapters were almost worth listening to the whole story as the narrator did an amazing job expressing the characters in the book. The main character spends so much time in her own head overthinking everything, and at times it was difficult to distinguish the main character’s inner dialogue from actual dialog. The flashbacks distracted me and pulled me out of the present. This isn’t so much a love story between the two protagonists as it is a journey of healing one’s childhood trauma.

Creative story

Revisado: 05-15-23

Unique story and not too predictable. I am not the type to reread/rewatch/relisten to things, but I would relisten to this to reexperience the twists and turns of the story. My only gripe of this book is that there wasn’t enough wlw content. I personally almost stopped listening to the book because of all the straightness, but the overall intrigue of the plot kept my attention. The main characters are bisexual, but they are mostly interested in men throughout the majority of the book. I find this contradicts the overall theme that men are despicable animals. Although, I do agree with other reviews that too many of the men/boys in this book are depicted as such terrible excuses for human beings. And, that the only real likable male character is Drew, a gay married man who shows up occasionally. I enjoyed the narrators and how each personified their own unique character.

Not interesting

Revisado: 04-21-23

I thought it would be more interesting for incorporating dragons and rewriting history… But, I was very dissatisfied. I would recommend the trilogy “when women were warriors” as this series does everything better. There is adventure, war, kingdoms, badass women, lgbt love, and beautiful development and explorations of the characters. The first book is available as an audiobook, and I hope the rest will be available soon so that I can purchase them!

Love the series, beautiful performance!

Revisado: 03-31-23

I own and have reread the book series multiple times, one of my favorites! I wish the rest of the series was available in audiobook so that I could listen to them multiple times as well!

Beautiful performance

Revisado: 03-25-23

The narrator did an amazing job bringing the characters and story alive. I did not enjoy the 3rd book as much as the first two as the story grew more convoluted leading to my interest waning.
