amara_gibsie and claires wife💋✨💍 (urgirl_amara) | 39 comments So powerless and reckless were terrible in my opinion. Paeydn was super annoying and CRAVED attention. Kia deserves so much better.
Please tell me someone out here agrees???

Alexia Pinon | 11 comments FR. I semi-liked Powerless, but Reckless was kinda boring, in my opinion. I felt like it was a little too similar to The Red Queen series, which I absolutely devoured and LOVED. I think I might read Fearless just because I can't not finish a series, but I definitely saw way too many similarities between this series and The Red Queen series!! I just don’t get the hype because I feel like Red Queen was so much better 😭

Julia (juliareyes17) | 7 comments okay, im glad im not alone, the writing for me wasn't it... so repetitive for no reason

"Not until I looked into a pair of ocean blue eyes and realized that perhaps drowning was a beautiful thing. Not until I looked into a pair of fiery blue eyes and realized that perhaps burning was a painless thing. Not until I looked into a pair of sky blue eyes and realized that perhaps falling was a peaceful thing."

okay we get it blue eyes and their effect on you, please stop!!

Kittyluvrr89 | 276 comments I literally don't understand it AT ALLL that book pisses me off so much 😭😭 I've never hated a book more im so sorry. it has nothing original in it. I don't think it's a crime to have your book be inspired by other fantasy books like that's been done so many times. but instead of putting the authors own touch on the world building and adding in even a little bit of uniqueness to separate it from other books she just gave nothing! I think that's why it seems plagiarised in my opinion. the characters also seem bland and annoying and basic like every other book. ohhh look they're enemies to lovers except their not because they clearly fancy each other from their first meeting like shut up. I genuinely think people are so focused on the romance they don't notice the other problems like it must just blind them. I can't think of any other reason as to why people aren't noticing how bad it is. I see people quoting things in their 5 star reviews and the writing genuinely looks like something I could write when I was like 15. I understand the author is young and I think there is potential there but maybe she should have waited a few years 🫣 and honed her craft a bit more before releasing books. or maybe not because people still seem to love her books so what do I know

Livlyy ⭑.ᐟ | 225 comments BROOOO FRRRR , I literally hate powerless . The only good characters are Adena and Kitt. I see no chemistry between Kai and Paedyn , seems more like lust then love to me. And no offence but I HATE THE FANDOM , they are literally giving spoiler without warning and hating on people giving their opinion about powerless. MMC is so annoying , like why does he even exist
