![]() ![]() When Skyy is born, a prophecy is triggered that puts her at the center as the only person capable of preventing mass destruction. ![]() And we're still jumping around to these pointless POVs that do nothing to push the story forward. Halfway through the book and she's still home packing. For Skyy to at least leave on her journey. But at 50% into the book I found myself just begging for something to happen. I'm sad because I was really looking forward to this book. None of the characters really had a distinctive personality. The writing came across stilted and awkward. Instead of just getting the story out and letting the reader experience the world/set up, it was mostly inner monologs of explanations and over analyzing situations. That's cool.Īnother contributor to the slowness was that everything was so over explained. Like sure this woman was about to die and kickstart this whole prophecy, but we can totally switch gears and read about these guys eating breakfast. I couldn't get into any part of the story because every time the plot seemed to pick up, we switched to a completely different point of view. I really liked the concept but I just don't think it was done justice. But the actual plot and pacing move at a glacial speed. I know it's supposed to be a slow burn and I was prepared for that. ![]()
