JE Apr'24 "Didn't convince me" [21]

Defy the Night by Brigit Kemmerer

                                            

This book has all the pieces for a brilliant story, but I just couldn't believe in it. Maybe because the duality of Prince Corrick wasn't explored deeply enough? Or I wasn't attached enough to the characters? The threat didn't feel real? I found myself frowning in confusion as the plot leapfrogged complex problems.
