The Forgetting Moon struggles with its Point of View. Technically everything should be fine, The character voices are varied, the situations are interesting enough. But I could not for the life of me care about a couple of characters.

I found everything to do with Nail and Ava Shay to be incredibly compelling, during these chapters I couldn't put the book down. It was some of the most engaging content I read all of last year. Im counterpoint, Tala Bronachell is so boring, and I don't know why. I could not care less about her. And it makes no sense, as the situations she is in our interesting, but I found her to be a wet pancake of a character.
Jomdralyn is another character I take umbridge with, and she's not a dumb person, but she makes dumb decisions, at no fault of her own. People just don't tell her what she's doing is dumb, when they all know.

Anyways this a 3 star book, equal part 5 and 1 star.
