Rust in the Root

The worldbuilding is jam-packed, with slim room for the characters to actually do or say anything. It’s clearly well-researched, but feels determined to name-drop as many historical events as possible with their corresponding magic twist in this chronology.

Don’t like the main character, detest the sister, can’t stand the family.

Lots of infodumps early on, plus this lists exactly what everyone is wearing in too much detail for me.

Keeps bringing up a topic that's triggering to me. Also I'm not enjoying the premise.

Don't like it, not sure why. I don't know why I'm supposed to care about what's happening, feels like too many perspective characters too soon.
