It started off really well and there were moments throughout that I was really invested. However, the personal interactions between characters is where this story really fell short.
Almost all of the heart felt conversations between characters were cringy at best and the playful banter occasionally felt forced.
Also, the characters reactions to horrible things happening felt very hollow.
I don’t think I will be picking up the next book in the series. It just left me with a bit of a bad taste in my mouth.
