Sanctuary of the Shadow by Aurora Ascher
3.5
This book is so UNserious, but like? I was vibin? It's not perfect by any means, and I would not say this is terrible.
- Upon rereading the synopsis, it is not WRONG, but I think most people build up expectations of what they THINK it will mean.
- The writing is very simple, like incredibly basic. Until the smut scenes, when apparently the author decided to put on her glasses and say "let's get down to business"
- The circus was kind of a launching point for the setting, but they aren't physically there all that much. I get why people are annoyed by this because it does feel like it should have been a bigger point.
- Again, this is so unserious. It's basic. Do not think too much into this one honestly.
- Let's talk about the ending!!
- I hate the pregnancy trope in the last chapter, like c'mon do we really need this? No.
- The epilogue felt so rushed??? The war between the queens is over in a matter of one paragraph? Why. Jail.
