Was I even close? Reacting to my 5 star predictions from 2019 😅

i think i actually think i have rated it four star at the time it was a very low four star but i remember enjoying it when i was reading it and i think stars overall just very much aligned i'm however i absolutely lost interest in it and i have zero intention in continuing in the series

the beginning of it was hands down five stars one of the best beginnings i've ever read it in immediately drew me in i immediately cared for the characters i thought it's gonna be great throughout i did get tired of it somewhere maybe between halfway through to the second half it became very repetitive and quite predictable

once i've read this i rated it five stars and then i read the second book and for the first time in my life i went back to the first rating and lowered it i still had a very good time with the first one

i actually dnf'd it around page 100 i think i did not vibe with not necessarily the writing but the writing was quite like lyrical i really struggled to care about anything that was happening i thought it was so draggy

it was brilliant i absolutely adored it five stars for sure i cannot believe i lowered it

good news though is that actually this one is getting pumped up to five stars it was one of those that i just really would happily have continues to read i was sucked into the story so quickly i still really loved it it still got you know a high four star

it was actually a four star so did say it was hard to judge and it honestly is one of those very confusing books until like you get later on so i don't blame myself and that confusion did continue for a bit it wasn't necessarily the reason for four stars though but it was four stars

the way of kings i 100 continue to be confused for a quite a long time there are a lot of kind of false beginnings to this book i ended up really enjoying it though for the rest of this first part

the first chapter of truthwitch is about two girls getting in trouble not sure if i dropped it i think i might have because i remember don't liking the action packs first chapter i hate when we start with an action i it's my pet peeve and i've not touched it since
