Katia H's Reviews > Quicksilver

This is terrible. There's no way anyone with a developed prefrontal cortex can enjoy this unless you're into dumb dialogues and even dumber MCs.

Don't get me wrong - the start is great. The idea and the world in which this is set is actually quite interesting. But as with many books in this genre, our independent, self sufficient and strong FMC turns into a useless, horny buffoon when she meets her eventual love interest.

The MMC? You're telling me you're 1000+ years old and you talk and act like a fucking moody teenager? In his emo stage? What grown ass woman finds that attractive?

Also, dear authors, respectfully, please don't gaslight the readers about the MCs being funny. It doesn't work. Just write funny scenes and dialogues to make us laugh. Don't write cringy 'jokes' and 'quips' that are not funny at all, and then have the side characters finding the MC hilarious as if that's going to make us think the joke was good. The FMC was making dreadful comebacks throughout which would have her be laughed out of a high school cafeteria, let alone in an adult setting.

It makes sense that this book is 'recommended for readers 17+'. Not because of TW or violence, but because the dialogue is on a level of 15-18 year olds.
