Review of 'The Chosen' on 'Goodreads'

1 star

The worst nonsense drama ever!

When I first heard of the release of a book dedicated to Xcor and Layla, I was already in a 'meh' mood. I don't stand Layla's whining and don't even like the couple and the chemistry.
I have also wondered if I should stop reading the series, but I decided to read it just to know what would have happened after I had heard of the release of The Thief. I am very curious to read about Sola and Assail, even if they look like respectively Xhex 2.0 and Rehv 2.0, so I didn't want to miss any relevant plot event.

But here we are: there is no important event. There is just nonsense drama and crappy stuff happening!
I am sorry not to like this series anymore. It used to be one of my favourite series and I loved the characters and everything, but it got less and less appealing over time with non sense drama between characters just to keep alive something that doesn't even sound realistic at all.

I hope that the next book will be better for me, otherwise I will seriously consider to stop there.
