After seeing the author’s name and books everywhere on social media I knew I had to at least try one for myself.
It was a hard read from so many pov. I always knew that Scottish names and places are harder to pronounce or even remember if you’re not used to them, and honestly that’s not even half of what I found hard in here.
The writing felt too much for me. I’m nowhere near anything academic or such skilled person, but this was a hard story to even keep up with. The cult factor set up the whole story and expectations. There are so many unconventional and “weird” things happening here. From the way they interact to each other, to the so called power they must get in one night celebration. I’m not even sure what happened in the last chapter. Why would you even go back?
There are a few characters that made the story a bit more believable and intriguing. But my overall experience is that unfortunately this one is definitely not for me.
Will I try another book if the author in the future? Maybe , but not too soon probably.
