Fated Throne by Caroline Peckham, Susanne Valenti

Go to review page

Did not finish book. Stopped at 45%.
dragged on for no real reason. I love that the authors enjoy the world and characters they created, but at one point you need to focus and move the plot. Everything is side quest or the most convoluted and slowest way possible to get to plot movement and i can't bring myself to care anymore. Fun while it lasted. Books 1-5 is a year in the life if the Vegas twin and 6 looks like its in a span of a year and still nothing seems to happen. Will just read spoiler to see how it ends
