I can’t tell you how mad I was when I realized she gave up the entire plot for this absolute dumpster fire. Praying the next release makes up for it otherwise I’m pretending these books don’t exist

John Jackson :
her pacing is all over the place. she writes these books with multiple plot lines like but wraps up the main plot usually in a big rush to leave sub plots unfinished but because the makes the MC so OP to wrap the main plot she has to arbitrarily flip to a new character for "reasons" then that character basically become OP and again not all the threads are finished. that happens ALOT in ACoTAR and Crecent city

Should have only been the first three books. Every book since the third has been so hard to read.

This is just a really in-your-face example of SJM's awful pacing. Splitting the Valkyrie Cycle into multiple books means that Splintered Harmony is nothing but the meandering beginning and middle sections of the story

Kingdom of Ash was 1000 pages and she couldn’t find a graphic designer to put 6&7 together? Hire me RIGHT NOW! I will kern the 💩 out of the text! ACOSH was 90% trash & 10% substance! Book 7 better be the substance!

what if the "splintered harmony" wasnt just among the IC but us as well. anyways it should've been called a court of lactation and teen angst

I haven’t even read it yet and just listening to all the discourse has made me decide. I’ve just lost interest. It shouldn’t be so complicated to enjoy the next book in a series.
