- Plot- or character-driven? A mix
- Strong character development? It's complicated
- Loveable characters? It's complicated
- Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated

“It was light and love and life.”
Perfect amount of time for the crossover, however how it was ended in part 1 destroyed my momentum for the story.
Mostly I hated the way it was spent, in the caves.
WHERE WAS THE MAGIC LANGUAGE BEAN WHEN A CERTAIN CHARACTER WAS LEARNING TO READ???
The plot was based almost entirely on plot reveals. And by characters revealing things they “forgot” to mention, like Flynn’s powers.
STOP CHANGING POVs SO OFTEN OH MY LORD
Part 2 was DRAWN OUT. WHY SO MANY CAVES, GOD
I didn’t care about the forgotten Fendyr heir storyline. I could have had Ithan’s character arc without it. Very interested in seeing him continue into this new role.
Tharion… Tharion… Tharion… my guy… you were egregiously useless when you had all the capabilities to do more. I am intrigued by the future of your story.
Why did Ariadne just become completely irrelevant until the very end???
Ruhn + Lidia🥰🥰🥰
I don’t care about Hunt & Bryce, my least favorite SJM couple. How dare she tell Hunt how to feel about the situation??? She didn’t spend 200 years as a slave. Horrible communication. Hunt deserves better than HOSAB and HOFAS Bryce
