Glass Sword, by Victoria Aveyard

Compared to book one this was a let down. I think it was too much action, to many new characters, and little growth with the main characters. I’m still reading the next one only because the ending intrigued me.

How can you like a book when you don't like half the characters? Because that's where I'm at. 

Mare is honestly just getting on my nerves. She's taking more responsibility than she needs to, and it's turning her into a blood thirsty monster. She just keeps getting on my nerves. 

Also, just too much happened in this book. Like a like lot happened, but what happened wasn't described enough. And a lot of characters got introduced, but we like barely got to know any of them, and I just didn't like that.

This book would've been great, I just think the characters, especially the main characters, need some major development. So hopefully, that will come in the next book because so far, I'm kind of bored.

The book was great in terms of the plot and what wound up happening. But I gave it three stars instead of four because there was too much filler, it felt like. Mare just bitched WAAAAAY too much. O found myself re-reading the same things over again in different ways.
But the story is incredible. Great outcome I didn't see coming.
