A review by clairefrances_8
Pestilence by Laura Thalassa

dark emotional tense medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? No
  • Diverse cast of characters? No
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

3.5

I feel like this was overhyped based on how much it came into my feed for booktok/insta. Interesting premise for a series, but the pace of the book was odd. Too long spent on some things
enemies to lovers
  and not enough time developing the characters after a fundamental challenge/major plot point of conflict.
Also sorry but the jump to the future with little note that they have kids now?? Idk just not for me
