There was too much romance in that for me. I still hope this will be better, but I am sorry you didn't like it. Will you finish the series?

Uh oh! Still, you may really enjoy the series, I hope you do. I'll definitely finish it so I can know what happens at the end, 4 books in, I don't really want to give up now!
A shame that you're not enjoying these as much as others seem to. I have too many other books at home to want to give these a try at the moment.

Ah, I was the same. Came away so disappointed after reading them😞 I finished the series anyway and glad I did, but you are definitely not alone friend. I think my expectations were too high... think I expected something like ASOIAF...

I literally forgot almost everything that happened in this series within 6 months. I did love the world and Geralt & co. But that's about it.
Loved the games, meh-ed the books (except the short stories - those were ok-to-good).
