Unravel the Dusk

Why does Maia thinks it's ok to lie about anything and about what happened to Lady Sarnai they will find out the truth somehow and I thought this series was about being in competition it wasn't being talking about anymore thru out both of the books in the series. The first part of the book was first book was focus on the competition till the middle of the book and went to totally different direction and it was the same for the second book. Maia seemed to be very annoying in my opinion when it came to eating food always complaining about it or complaining about anything and everything and Master Tsring had every right to refuse to help her I wouldn't want to help her out either. I don't know how this series is about retellings cause I don't know what fairy tale this would be about and why does the narrator need to whisper every single word or sentences it was pretty annoying to me and she couldn't have read the book in a normal talking voice? And another thing that annoyed me about Maia how she would call her father Baba it sounds like a goat or a sheep that makes that sound or a little child asking for Baba which means bottle I am not ever going to pick up this book or series every again. Cause just like the first book I am going to give it another 1 star cause I really wished they focused on the sewing competition and not went on to another direction.
