Defend the Dawn by Brigid Kemmerer
3.0
This series continues to be lukewarm for me. Tessa is a nightmare throughout book 2. She has no independent thought at all the entire book - she absorbs and reflects the personalities and opinions of those around her until she engages with someone who thinks something else and then the cycle repeats itself.
The writing is very good and the pacing of the book is quick enough that you don't lose interest. I think I really am missing what I assumed would be significant relationship development between Tessa and Corrick; in fact it feels they have gone back in time a bit.
I actually find Corrick to be delightful in this book, and I didn't see the ending coming. I also very much enjoyed the pov we get of the king this time around.
I will read book 3 because I have to know what happens but I'm underwhelmed for sure to this point.
