I feel like I’ve read this exact same book multiple times already – it felt like a mashup of other fantasy novels – completely generic with a ridiculous romance thrown in. That’s what I feel about Ever the Hunted. It kind of reminds me of the dystopian genre – some of the first books that were written in the genre were amazing, but as time went on, they seemed to get a bit stale over time, repeating almost identical storylines after a while. I haven’t been reading as much fantasy lately, and while I do so love the genre, I find myself iffy when it comes to picking up a fantasy book because I just have had so many problems with the ones I’ve been reading lately.
Maas, Graceling, and Truthwitch, and while I haven’t read any of those, I have all of Sara J Maas’ Throne of Glass series and A Court of Thorns and Roses series, as well as Graceling and Truthwitch. This book is noted as being perfect for fans of books by Sara J.
This book has all of the above, peppered with a bunch of romance that is gag worthy and really doesn’t add all that much to the story except to appeal to fans of romance AND fantasy. Lately, it seems like every time I pick up a super hyped up fantasy novel, I find myself either being bored, not relating to the characters at all, or thinking that the plot is just a rehashing of another dozen or so fantasy novels that I’ve already read.
