  • I found the humor in the first several chapters of the first book to be juvenile. The kind of humor you can see coming from a kilometer away so it's just too obvious and not really funny.

  • Understood. Curious your opinion on these:

    Fourth Wing (The Empyrean Book 1) Book 1 of 2: The Empyrean | by Rebecca Yarros

    The Serpent and the Wings of Night (Crowns of Nyaxia Book 1) Book 1 of 2: Crowns of Nyaxia | by Carissa Broadbent

    A Court of Thorns and Roses Book 1 of 5: A Court of Thorns and Roses | by Sarah J. Maas

    The Song of Achilles: A Novel Kindle Edition by Madeline Miller

  • Awe. Sorry it wasn't for you. I enjoyed it. Very touching for me. I just checked out the follow on book from my local library. I heard it's pretty emotional too.

    What's the most emotional book you've read?
