Fate of the Sun King by Nisha J. Tuli
Did not finish book. Stopped at 58%.
DNF at 58%
I just couldn't keep going. It was dragging so much and the plot wasn't going anywhere. The back and forth between the different timelines just kept ruining any momentum I gained (albeit not much, because I was not invested in either timeline.)
The whole story just feels like fanfiction and a trope checkbox list. I had issues with the first in this series but I really believed it had potential if the author could get a better editor / plot out the full story, but I'm giving up hope.
The characters are so flat - the trauma is used to manufacture drama and it's just not believable nor am I particularly invested in it. The relationships are volatile for no reason - they have blow ups that come out of nowhere and make up so quickly with no real depth.
I found myself hate reading / dreading going back to finish so I'm just calling it quits.
