  • @CharlotteeSmithhh
    @CharlotteeSmithhh 4 месяца назад

    oh I COMPLETELY agree with you. I don't know what the author did to Lady Macbeth, but I don't want it. I wanted to love the book, I truly did, because Macbeth is my favourite play, but my word did Reid assassinate her. By the end of the book I didn't care what happened to her, and truly, that ending was a choice. It felt very girlboss, which was unpleasant to read. And the side plot romance felt shoehorned in there, it truly could have been removed and nothing about the actual plot would have changed. I just wanted the Lady Macbeth who bullied her husband and told him he was "too full of the milk of human kindness" back

    • @tandewrites
      @tandewrites 4 месяца назад

      i truly do hope that this book finds an audience that enjoys it, but it's unfortunate that it won't be the shakespeare fan audience that i was expecting this book to be aimed towards :/

    Your review deserves to be read by a wide audience. I’ve read both books and read/watched many comments or videos on Ari and Dante’s story. To my surprise many were dismissive of book II because the storyline and characters appeared to diverge from book I’s arc. IMO that’s a rather immature view. We should not fetishize the emotions we experienced in the first book, but try to understand the source of that change (new, different, maybe difficult emotions). In book I Ari and Dante discover their world and try to find their place in it. Book II has them consolidating their thoughts, opinions, emotional journey and further exploring them. In some ways it leads them to differ from their own, younger selves, or from one another (discussions, even conflicts arise in the process). IOW they evolve from self-centered 15-year olds to young men ready to be a part of this world and wanting to actively participate in it. That 2 year gap in adolescence is actually worth a decade in character growth. They go from ‘discovering’ to ‘diving’ into the world. That’s a huge step. While it picks up exactly where I stops, Book II makes that evolution perfectly clear. As a literary work the Ari and Dante duology is self-sufficient. If there would be a sequel, I think it would be a good idea for the author to move the storyline ahead by a few years (from university graduation year, perhaps). That would be so rewarding…
