did not like it
bookshelves: dnf, 1-star

1.75* dnf: 30% I also looked ahead a bit. I don't think I'm going to like it any more.
(edit: lowered to 1 star horrible characters and info-dump worldbuilding)

What is this shit. I don't usually listen to recs/hype for sci-fi they are always horrible. I just wanted to try something new out for once. So many details yet the world doesn't seem cool at all. Less details please with a cooler world and less annoying characters. So boring.

Oh that was horrible. It's duo perspective and they just kept on talking and talking and it was so boring. It's obvious that there's going to be a romance because there kept on being little side comments like "she's so cute" and "he's actually pretty hot" and it was so dumb. I hate romances like that. It's never convincing at all. Are they even cute as friends? NO.

So I made sure to get to at least that part where they get in to the cave (or temple I'm not that sure I don't give a shit about this book) and they STILL just kept talking and talking about boring details even with the LITTLE BIT of action.

I could handle reading Amelia's side. If it was just her I could probably finish this book with a 3 star or something, but Jules side was so boring. His side was just all about the backstory and stuff for this story and it was such a huge info dump.

I have heard about male authors not being able to write female characters, but what about female authors not being able to write male characters. JULES DOESN'T EVEN SEEM THAT SMART. AMELIA SEEMS SMARTER THAN HIM. I think most main characters (main characters are kinda overpowered/super smart in general) are smarter than this guy. He's so lame. He's like woah I hate Amelia because she's a robber, but she's cute doe so whatevas. Oh I hate Amelia too. I just like her better. I could handle her. She's annoying too.

7.81% "Ugh. Duo perspective. I already prefer one of the main characters which is bad. There's only one series I ever read where I liked the duo perspective and it switched main character every 2 chapters instead of one.

Also duo perspective guarantees heavy romance if it's one boy one girl."
