Which isn’t the book’s fault if they’re already rolling with that kind of stance.
I only have so much patience so I think I dislike that they don’t get to the point. I think if you’re into magical worlds you’d really enjoy them talking to death about it. I tried following along but they talk SO MUCH that eventually I feel like I’m in a lecture hall and the only thing keeping me awake are the small hot tension looks and touches between the students sitting in front of me. I’m not sure if it’s the dialogue, but I just can’t get into it. I am here for the slow burn between the four guys and Maddigan and that’s really it LOL That being said, it’s unfortunate for me because at least half of the book is about talking, breathing, seeing, fighting in, living everything that are the Trials.
I think I can say with all honestly that I could give two licks about the virtual magical whatever world that is the Trials.
