🌕🌕🌕🌕🌗 Really good! This might be one of the first times I've actually enjoyed a love corner in a story. The magic system in these is always so intriguing, and I loved learning more about secret names.

The Throne of Fire | Rick Riordan

so-so

I'm not sure I'll carry on with this series, I'm finding it incredibly boring and I'm losing patience with the characters.

The world is ending in 5 days and there's no urgency. The MCs go off to do non related things. It's so frustrating especially when other RR books have that urgency, that tension, and danger.

⬇️

PuddleJumper Onto the other reason why I'm potentially done with this series. The romance. Carter has become obsessed with Zia, a girl he met once, and has some white knight type fantasy going on.

Sadie, who is 12, has a crush on a 16 year old and a 5000 year old god. Ok. What isn't ok is they like her back and they want to pursue a relationship with her. The 12 year old child.

PuddleJumper I don't know if I want to commit anymore time to this series especially when I've got other books I want to read.

5feet.of.fury Ugh 12 is not appropriate for any age gap, 4 years or 4000. That‘s very icky 1mo

BookmarkTavern The main reason I made it through this series was that the audiobook narrators are fantastic. But they do sound like adults, so the romances didn‘t really register as icky as they are until I finished the books, and actually thought about them. 😅 (edited) 1mo

PuddleJumper @BookmarkTavern The audiobooks have been helping loads, I don't think I would have finished it if I was reading. I don't know why he made them so young, they come across as older anyway! 1mo

I think I disassociated when reading the last book because WTF is this Anubis stuff?

Sadie is 12!

BookmarkTavern Yeah, that always sat really badly with me. 1mo

I enjoyed it. The magic was very different and I liked how the gods were portrayed.
