The Priory of the Orange Tree by Samantha Shannon
4.0
Contains spoilers be aware!
I love the book, nothing to complain about, the world building is beautiful, alto at times it was slow even if its says its medium-pace. I hate hate Ross, I would kill him if I can, and would.
Nayimathun is my favrioute Dragon.
Oddly enough I also loved Kalyba the most out of all the characters, a lot there are a few I loved like Tane, Edaz and Queen Sabran and probably many more in the list.
Note - I had forgotten how many times I mentally screamed at this book when Niclays appear, and the many times I just wanted to kill him off, but somehow he always slithered away like a snake.
Towards the end I had felt the fight or the death of the Nameless One quite boring. Like the moment was suppose to be this huge thing, like they are going to kill the Nameless One omg!. But all I saw was like two pearls boom power, wrap him in a pretty little bow and into the abyss, dead and boom problem solved.
Also I rather think, that the last few chapter or some of them were a tiny bit dragging and a bit pointless, but informative nonetheless.
Oddly enough I would not make this book as my favrioute read, sure it was fun to read it and such but at times it dragged to many times, that almost put me in a reading slump a few times, and put it down for a few days only to pick it up, so I will defiantly, not give this book a 5 stars, it is more likely a 4.2 starts in my option and almost a 3.5 stars.
I almost might give a go to other books that are by Samantha Shannon, and see what other fun adventures there are to explore.
What did I feel when I finished the book?
- My tought were, fucking finally I am done with this fucking book.
- I did not like the ending, or more like the last few chapters of the book.
- Over all I feel satisfied that I finished this mammoth of a book, loved the writing.
