Paladin's Strength by T. Kingfisher

4.0

3.5 The last 60% of this book was amazing. But that first 40% dragged on and was so obnoxious. I don't want to hear repeating internal thoughts about two characters in love who wouldn't communicate with each other about their feelings and constantly thinking about how each other is attractive but they don't deserve each other. It was so frustrating and boring and nothing really happened besides them lusting and then hating themselves. The later part of the book was great. This world is really fun but there are a couple mentions of very specific Christian tropes which wouldn't make any sense in this world unless the world has another Jesus in it. Probably going to read the last one in this trilogy and I hope it doesn't have the same pitfalls of this one.
