Meet Roger. Skilled with words, languages come easily to him. He instinctively understands how the world works through the power of story. Meet Dodger, his twin. Numbers are her world, her obsession, her everything. All she understands, she does so through the power of math. Roger and Dodger aren’t exactly human, though they don’t realise it. They aren’t exactly gods, either. Not entirely. Not yet. Meet Reed, skilled in the alchemical arts like his progenitor before him. Reed created Dodger and her brother. He’s not their father. Not quite. But he has a plan: to raise the twins to the highest power, to ascend with them and claim their authority as his own.
I had high expectations for this book because I’ve heard a lot of good things about it. But after trying to read it I quickly DNF-ed this book because it was very boring. But let me explain what I mean.
The plot here was all over the place, we follow way too many characters here and its very hard to get track of everyone. From the moment I started reading this book to the moment I DNF-ed I was confused all the time.
The characters here were very weak, and I just couldn’t find the strength in me to care about them or form any thoughts about them. Because my brain refused to give the characters in this book any brainpower. The characters in this book are very silly which makes this book feel like a book for 10 years old. The way the characters talked with each other in this book really made me cringe AF, because it was like the author was trying to make the characters as cartoon-ish as possible and she succeeded but in a very negative way.
When you read the summary of this book then the premise of it sounds very interesting but the moment you start reading this book you realized that the plot is very nonsensical. The entire plot just seems like it was written by second or third graders trying to write a book for themselves.
The writing style was very bad it felt like again second or third graders have written this book. The writing style gets from being very advanced to being way too simple and again to being very advanced. It was like the author couldn’t decide which writing style she wanted to use in this book, so she just went with multiple.
I DNF-ed this book after having read around 100 pages of this book, just because this entire book was way to bad for me to handle reading the entire book.
I Give This Book 1 / 5
