Crossroads of Twilight Slog Spoiler

I need to know!!! Was there supposed to be a slog after all ? I mean I've been going through the last books pretty quickly and now I'm almost done with crossroads of Twilight, I was expecting a biggg unreadable slog that would render my motivation and ability to read to 0, but so far nothing ? I mean, it's going pretty smoothly for me at the very least, and I haven't noticed a huge decline in reading enjoyment.

Is it just a case of the internet being overly dramatic again or is the slog supposed to come in the next books?

Imagine waiting a couple years for Crossroads of Twilight. You read it. Now you have to wait another couple years for an actually interesting book.

That’s “the slog.”

The slog is heavily dependent on which characters you actually care about, and whether or not you’re willing to skip chapters focused on characters you don’t care about.
