The Shadows Between Us by Tricia Levenseller
medium-paced
- Plot- or character-driven? A mix
- Strong character development? No
- Loveable characters? No
- Diverse cast of characters? No
- Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated
1.0
Why, oh why did I do this to myself?
So I read it in audiobook because I'm telling you, physically I wouldn't. It was a waste of my time. The characters were, I guess you could say, morally grey. No, ok they were morally grey which is fine, BUT. But... It gave e a weird feeling. It excuses colonization and murder.
Disappointed.

Like Kallias -or whatever his name was- is a king, that ruthlessly barges into other countries and colonizes them and expects the residents there to oblige without a revolution. SiR? sIr! And when he finds out that Alessandra murdered someone, he starts laughing and excuses her of all charges. What? How is that acceptable?Disappointed.
Graphic: Colonisation and Murder
