Good Plot - Rushed Character Dev

Revisado: 09-06-24

The setting and plot are interesting. Exceptional example of “show don’t tell”. The character development kept breaking my suspension of disbelief. Nikolai is a textbook portrayal in narcissism. He’s supposed to be smart, but is incredibly stupid. After being told an obvious solution to his problem he acts like the same person is keeping secrets. He’s a narcissist who doesn’t even believe his own eyes. Madea is confusing and inconsistent. She’s supposed to be a genius and meticulous, but struggles with linear thinking and forming a logical argument. She’s centuries old with a profound understanding of human anatomy, but turns naive at the sight of someone she considers inferior nearly naked, as if she has never seen an anatomy textbook. She’s dispassionate from being old, but is highly reactive and has little control over her own thoughts.

This book was super practical, enlightening, and genuinely useful. I couldn’t stop taking notes. The concepts and anecdotes used in this book were very helpful in making the ideas concrete and will absolutely help me turn insight into action. The narrator was also super engaging. I would recommend this book to liters of all levels.

Confusing and One Dimensional

Revisado: 10-31-17

I love The League series, but this book feels lazy. I struggling to force myself to finish this story so I'm ready for the next. The Bastien book lacks in plot and character development. The writing it good, but the plot is void any kind of originality and depth. The main character is an amorphous amalgamation of character traits from all the other characters and makes terrible decisions without credible reasoning. You never really get to learn who Bastien is aside from being a character clone of other characters, a charming and handsome prince who is misunderstood and lied about. Sounds like Dancer and Darling. There are many contradictions in the relationship dynamics and many plot jumps without a curtesy of an amount of time.
