Never have I wished for a story to conclude as fervently as I did with A Curse Curved in Bone by Danielle L. Jensen. At times, it felt like pure torture reading it, yet my determination to finish was unshakeable. I fully understood what I was diving into; several friends had forewarned me, but curiosity compelled me to experience it for myself. I awarded it 3 stars for its exquisite writing, the captivating world-building, and that plot twist that blindsided me—I genuinely believed it held the potential for a 5-star rating. But then there was Freya. Ugh! She drained every last drop of enjoyment from the narrative. It wasn’t until the final 20 to 25 percent that she finally redeemed herself, but by then, trust was a distant memory. Hadn’t she led me astray before? If I had the chance to go back, would I willingly embark on this series again? Absolutely! It was worth every moment of anguish. And before anyone criticizes me, let me clarify: I adore strong female characters; it was just her pettiness, rudeness, hatred, righteousness, and condescending attitude that felt like relentless overkill.
