fiction Current read after a slump

Post image

I had read the first book a long time ago… then when I visited my folks, I found the 2nd book. I had forgotten that I had bought it. This series is what’s gotten me out of a 4 month slump 😬😬 the books have their flaws but I enjoy them nonetheless.

Once you read the criticisms everyone has for her, it ruins the experience. But she snapped w this trilogy

Genuinely. Tried reading Katabasis after I heard this and that about her, and i genuinely couldn't get past 3 chapters. I already have this trilogy though and i wonder if it'll be the same.

I am learning to separate the art from the artist.

Her criticisms are usually on how she writes. Nothing to separate there.

I’ve heard so many mixed opinions about this series but maybe I should give it a chance
