I enjoyed the concept of the story but many of the main character‘s choices were unbearable to witness. The fact that she‘s still got friend‘s after the things she pulled is a miracle. Also the chemistry and relationship between the two love interest was kinda lackluster. Would have loved more interactions to make it believable.
Wow - freu mich schon auf Band 2
2.5 ⭐️ if you like books that spell out every single thought, this might work. For me it was unfortunately too slow and I couldn’t connect to any character besides Anton
Ziemlich guter Debütroman. Bis zur letzten Seite dachte ich, es wäre ein Einzelband. Und dann kam doch noch ein cliff hanger der einen weiteren Teil vermuten lässt. Schön geschrieben. Mir fehlt noch etwas mehr Einblick in die Welt obwohl sie schon gut beschrieben wurde. Die Handlung spielt leider nur in einem sehr kleinen Teil der doch sehr großen Welt. Ebenso die Erklärung zur Gottheit kam etwas zu kurz um es vollkommen zu verstehen. Die Handlung selbst war spannend bis zum Schluss. Die Charaktere total unterschiedlich und interessant allesamt. Hat wirklich Spaßgemacht zu lesen.
