Series: Falling Kingdoms Book #1
Format: Paperback
Pages: 412
Rating: 3 Stars
How I Got It: Purchased
I’m going to be honest-this was a little bit of a
disappointment. But I think part of that is how loved it is by a lot of the people
I watch on youtube. Plus, Ms. Rhodes seems like an amazing person which always
makes me want to like their books. But people say the series only gets better
so I do plan on continuing the series.
My biggest issue is how little I care about these
characters. There was a lot of death and I had no emotional reactions. In fact,
one of the three main characters could bite it and I wouldn’t be phased. A big
part of that is that I don’t care or particularly like any of them.
Another problem I have is how incredibly impulsive and
immature these characters are. They would change their minds on huge issues
almost instantly. Maybe they had logical reasons, but I didn’t see them through
in the writing. This was especially true in the romance department. I kind of
wish there had been no romance. And I have a feeling I know where this is going
to go and I hope I’m wrong.
That’s been a lot of negative so let’s talk positive. I’m
actually very intrigued by what I’m assuming is going to be the large plot
surrounding the Kindred. And I think the world, magic, and side characters have
so much potential.
This is also a bigger series so I have hope these
characters will be further developed and grow/mature.
Thanks for reading!
