"graceling". Because blindly picking book with sword-lady went well when it was throne of glass.
It's a total failure of a book. It has stupid pronouns-in-twitter-bio politics, and I assume this is the only reason some wokerista publisher could overlook its shittiness. I only got 30 pages in, and for the last half of that I was only staying to watch the trainwreck. It has no creativity, the mental imagery it showed was bland, the main character gets introduced as ""ooh wow she kills peopel with zero effort wowe so cool" and is a "graceling" which is authorspeak for "stfu she's just magic at this shit", who wants to overthrow all the kings (who are obviously unjust). She and simp-friend have made the "council" (anti-bad-person league) who fight evil people (everybody in power) who are all really weak, really stupid and evil for no reason.

Everything is so shittingly obviously lazy, even if I were politically retarded I'd still hate this book. It has a map, but it has 7 kingdoms; 6 are copy-paste same-size kingdoms with one city each, called "[King name] City". The westmost one is "wester" and the east "estill", south and north are also slurred cardinal directions, the middle one is "middluns", FFS. There's one island kingdom too, which is good-person-land.
