I'm unsure

I'm unsure of where to even begin with this. I just have one question? WHAT HAPPENED? I almost feel as if you got lazy Annabel Chase. It's kind of disrespectful to your readers if I'm being honest.
The Herione is supposed to be a bad ass Godess in hiding who has been trained since she was a child to hide and hide well. All of a sudden, she forgot 35 years of training for a chance to see her dead human parents courtesy of the evil organization she fears so much. Really? I live in a world without supernatural magic and I could see that trap coming from a mile away. Like, come on. The author put NO effort into this book.
The world building was completely gone. The plot was completely trashed with no effort to make it work. Again....WHAT HAPPENED?
Our "bad ass" Godess gets almost killed by a Druid for goodness sake. A druid who used the same magic she fought so well against in a past book. It didn't even take a whole paragraph before she was overcome and almost died. Just for the author to lazily add in a "cut scene". Again....WHAT HAPPENED?
The major battle of the story was sooo underwhelming that it was actually horrifying. The wild hunt that everyone fears is a bunch of idiots. They were easily overpowered and taken out. How any author portrays the Wild Hunt in such an underwhelming light is beyond my scope of understanding. Our Herione Godness NEVER ONCE EVEN USED HER POWERS. Again.....WHAT HAPPENED?
I can't, seriously. The more I think about what I just read, the more I know that's it's not even worth the stars I was giving it.
I most definitely will not continue this series nor read anything else from this author.
