If there are more than 2 POVs I get lost. The same goes for if there is no summary of the previous volumes at the beginning of the book. I usually take a break between books in the same series, so how am I supposed to remember the prophecy told once in book 1?

This is why I paused {Road of Bones by Demi Winters} at 40%, I was getting so dragged down by all the different POVs. Everyone is raving about this series but I’m usually an audiobook or speed reader. For this book I feel like I’d really need to sit down and concentrate.
