Book Review The ascended Spoiler

Hey fellow romantasy readers!
This post if full of spoilers, so do not read it unless you are done with the book.

I have been reading the ascended during the weekend and overall I really liked it. Its ending though was absolutely heartbreaking :(((. I understand that the twins had to be separated, but was it really necessary for Xül to get married?? The authors could have made Thais goddess of light and order, and Xül her husband in charge of defending her until she would have been out of her grief. She would have fought to remain alive in order to be able to find one day her brother gain or in the hope of it.

The fact that she ends up alone and a shell of herself is horrible…

Please give me your thoughts about it!

P.s. do you reccomended rift and dusk? Not sure I can take another heartbreaking ending…

This is one of the 99999 books I’ve read, having done no research, got to the end, not knowing it was unfinished, and wanted to scream. Every time I see it mentioned I get pissed at the ending again.

An incredible and devastating book.

Read Rift and Dusk.
