Yesterday, I made it halfway through A Brighter Dark while waiting on the next installment of
leliel_12 's criticism of the same.
Long story short: I don't think it's very good.
There's a lot that I feel needs to be picked apart, but in the interest of saving time and space, I'll limit my list to include a few things that stuck out to me for the first 22 chapters:
( Moderate spoilers within (and a content warning for a character's death) )
The story ground to a halt several months ago, so we won't get to see how it actually ended, but I wonder if I should incorporate the notes from "The End" if I ever get around to doing a full review. All I can do is keep reading and hope that there'll be something I can genuinely root for, but considering how frustrated I was with the first quarter of it, I don't have high hopes.
