Here is the deal. I enjoyed the book, but, there were a couple of very stereotypical YA things that kind of get annoying after a while.
Twylla is SUUUUUUUUUUUPER annoying, she has almost no character development in the whole book. She is extremely immature, and she has almost no interaction with people, so a lot of the time she doesnt know how to act. She thinks herself in love after seeing collar bones. FREAKING COLLAR BONES. WTH people.
I like Merek, although, I dont think we know everything about him yet. And Leif, the other love triangle, GAG, is just blegh. I didnt care for him at all. And there were so many times when I was simply shocked that Twylla and Leif werent caught by other people. Like, yall are being stupid.
“My mother is a fat woman” was probably my favorite sentence, I laughed pretty hard at that. Just straight to the point, because her mother was the Sin Eater of Lormere. She is dedicated to the job, and always eats the whole feast, which is why she is heavy. Twylla was to be the next Sin Eater, but the Queen found her and discovered her immunity to poison and that she was touched by the gods so she is Daunen Embodied. Daunen Embodied is the Queens personal executioner of traitors to the crown, or so it seems.
Solid 3.5 stars, damn you GR for not letting me pick half stars.
