So basically I started reading the red rising series, and I am loving it. The first book at least. But I want other opinions. Did you like the series? What didn’t you like about it? How are the other books in the series? OBVIOSLY without too much spoilers but I’m just curious if it is worth going through the series.

Ah, the Red Rising series! Well, let me tell you, it’s like a roller coaster ride in space.
After a few books I got to the point where I just wanted the plot synopsis.
I couldn’t stand it, was so poorly written I couldn’t believe the hype. Im not a big sci fi guy anyways though
I quit the first book 2 hrs from the end, audiobook obviously. I hated the narration I couldn’t have cared less about Darrow or his story. I knew I wouldn’t be going on to the second book and I hated it so much I didn’t care about finding out how it ended.
Oh, the Red Rising series? Now that’s a wild ride, my friend.
DNF for me
I’m enjoying it far more than I thought I was going to from the start. I just finished the second book and I’m pumped to get into the third. I truly have no clue where it’s going but the ride has been great so far…
Enjoyed the first one for the world building and uniqueness, though I had a hard time relating to MC. DNF book 2. It felt like the issues I had with the MC in book 1 evolved into full blown misogyny by book 2. Just went back to read my Goodreads review and apparently the line, “He sees people, not Colors,” was the straw that broke my back and caused me to put it down for good.
