A review by anotherhalima
The Dark Will Rise by Michaela Haze

maeve is so confusing… actually all the main characters are. what do you mean y’all just walked into cruinn with no back up? ate the food after she was poisoned in book one? trusted elaine? idk if i want to root for ppl who don’t think. i find the world fascinating and i want to know more but with characters like this and lacklustre romances it’s just not it. also slow burn does not mean no burn. i feel like i’m being told they connecting but i don’t see it.

the writing is repetitive which is annoying. i don’t need maeve to repeat how her life was before, how her uncle rules and liked and how things are in general all the time. in the beginning sure since ppl might forget the details in between books but several times in one book is too much.

i probably will cont if i remember but i’m not actively waiting for the next book.
