New week means new monday bookish meme hosted by The Book Date.
It started off pretty great, but the end result was bleh. The whole vibe was off - the dialogues were stiff, almost like no emotion was present; the powers weren't explained properly; the world building wasn't detailed enough. You have Croppers, who grow food for everyone and you have Regents who do important stuff at the city I guess? I have no idea what their purpose is....The main twist I saw a mile away and the ending was predictable. I did like Meg as the main character though.
If I end up liking Down World, I'm probably continuing with this series. Apparently, there's also a third book which had it's release date pushed back to 2025.

Oh no, sucks you didn't end up loving Sky of Seven Colors. That one sounded like it had a really interesting premise. But at least the protagonist was a good one. Lol. As a lover of Spooky Season lol, I'm looking forward to seeing what books you read!
ReplyDeleteyeah, unfortunately, the last few books I read were definitely not my thing 😂 maybe I'll have more luck next month
