I could not connect with it. I found it to be a slog to get through. I haven’t read TOG yet, so I feel like I’m not invested enough to care about our MC yet.

I just could not connect with the story. I don’t seem to like books where the characters are escaping and have to travel around a lot. I had the same problem with The Darkest Minds. I just find it so boring. 

OMG, this book was so good. The only issue I have is that I’m not totally comfortable with the spice, but it’s not there often enough for it to be a big deal. I’m so excited to see what happens next. 

A Fool’s Hope picks up right after the end of We Are The Dead, and it’s definitely a great continuation, at least until the 60% mark. We are still following the same characters, with the addition of three new ones, but we follow the same characters through multiple chapters in a row, and that made for a bit of a slog through. But, the book definitely picks up again in the last 20% with an action-packed finale. I’m curious how the story is going to conclude in the next book. 

This volume was quite intense. It started off really sweet, but got really deep into Charlie’s mental health struggles. It was a hard read, but I still enjoyed it very much.
