Finished Little Princess in Fairy Forest. It was… okay. Lots of weird twists and turns that mostly left me confused.
I’m ramping up my reading again so I’m hoping to get through both Death’s Daughter and the Ebony Blade and Apothecary Diaries this week, both of which I’m quite excited for.
I have to look up my cliffs notes about Death’s Daughter I posted here (btw. posting here weekly what I’ve read is great when I have to remember what I thought about a series - I highly recommend doing this wink wink) but I think I remember that I felt that the main character was very flip-floppy with her personality. If the author wanted to push in a certain direction the MC was dumb like a piece of bread and the next moment she was super attentive. Very inconsistent. Apothecary Diaries is great though, so I recommend starting with that.
Oh, I just meant the latest volumes, both had releases in January I haven’t gotten to yet.
Death’s Daughter is a bit uneven as a series but generally I really enjoy it. It’s a war story with lots of military strategy and politics scattered across the continent, but Olivia helps keep it a bit lighter and easier to read than the usual war chronicle. I wouldn’t really call her inconsistent, at least for the most part; she’s kind of ditzy and sheltered and bad at human interaction, but she’s hyper-competent when it comes to killing people. Good ol’ gap moe.
And yeah, Apothecary Diaries is by far my favourite LN series, super good all the way through.
