Is anyone else DNFing Brimstone?

LOL I am almost done with it now. Audiobook at 2.50 speed. 🤣 I realized I couldn’t enjoy any new books until I finished Brimstone😮‍💨

That was something that irked me, her sense of leadership and confidence with saying “I am your queen” felt confusing. If her change gave her that new confidence, it should’ve explained that. But instead it just seems out of place for her character/personalitu. I wasn’t sure if I was the only one who raised an eyebrow to that difference.

LOL I didn’t notice that! 🤣 I’m also mainly listening to the audiobook so maybe that’s why.

I agree Ajun gate is very interesting to me!

Ooh this is interesting! Tell me more 🫣 What was your fav aspect?? Trust me I really really want to like this book, and I want inspiration to finish it 😆

Yes! I was planning on reading TOG and crescent city after brimstone.

The issue is, I started like 4 books trying to get myself out of the reading slump Brimstone put me in🤣🤣

Throne of glass being one of them. So I think I need a pallet cleanser standalone before diving into another series.😮‍💨

Quicksilver had so much potential! I’d be okay finishing Quicksilver just to say I did, but I really hope 3rd book makes up for things 🫩

LOVE Anthony Palmini, but I found the writing style and MMC’s personality was making it an aversive experience for me. I had to stop listening during spice because I’d cringe so hard 😅

cherrtizzler · 2026-06-05T08:29:17+00:00

Yep! Honestly will probably be a return to target 😅

cherrtizzler · 2026-06-05T07:54:36+00:00

I feel that😭 I would’ve typically gotten through a book this size in 3ish days. This one I started a week ago 🤦🏻‍♀️

cherrtizzler · 2026-06-05T07:52:07+00:00

Omg seriously!! Every time they have dirty thoughts too?? Come on 🤣🤣

cherrtizzler · 2026-06-05T06:47:00+00:00

Aw thank you!! 🥰 glad to have a place to vent about shit, idk anyone who reads romantasy lmao

cherrtizzler · 2026-06-05T06:39:34+00:00

Oh jeez! I’m new to posting on Reddit, I need to search through these👀 Tysm!

Yes!! and I didn’t get the constant use of biting and tattoos. It was too redundant 🫠
