Reviews with the most likes.
I really liked Dark Rise and was excited to listen to the continuation of the series, but I'm left slightly disappointed by it. Over 50 chapters with several character's pov's (where I didn't care for most of them) made the book drag on forever and made it much harder to complete. Whereas I devoured the first book within days, a bunch of chapters in Dark Heir felt unnecessary to me and bored me so much I'd stop listening. The last ten chapters however, were so good it made drudging through the rest worth it, and now I need to know what happens next!
How is it going to end like THAT?? CS PACAT I HAVE WORDS FOR YOU!!!!
