The Fates Divide by Veronica Roth
2.0
Eh. I didn’t really enjoy this.
I still don’t like Cyra at all and none of the rest of the characters particularly appealed to me.
The relationship between Cyra and Akos felt forced and I couldn’t see any real connection or spark between them.
The plot wasn’t particularly interesting to me and I didn’t find myself intrigued to know what was going to happen.
The writing was overly, and unnecessarily, dramatic and I found myself rolling my eyes a few times.
I mean, it wasn’t all bad - there were some bits where I started to get much more into the story and thought it was going to pick up from here, but unfortunately they never lasted.
I just didn’t really like it. I’m disappointed, but based on the strength of the Divergent series - I loved all three books - I’ll still read whatever Veronica Roth does next, I just hope it’s not more of the same!
