I made it through 75% of the book hoping it would get better. I can’t put my finger on why, but this book was too YA for me. The narrator seemed very young (I think she’s supposed to be about 12). I think part of it is that the MC is so determined for so long to adhere to the tenets of a religion that is actively harming her. I finally couldn’t put up with it any longer.

I picked up Powerless for a book club. It’s a YA romantasy that explores what would happen if it was illegal to not have superpowers; in other words, to be powerless. And what happens when you fall for one of the princes whose father has killed your father and made your existence illegal? Oh, and who you’re supposed to fight in a series of deadly trials? This was a little too YA and contrived for me, but I was rooting for the main romance, so I might continue the series anyway.
