In this video, Charity reviews the book 'Ruthless Vows' by Rebecca Ross, the second book in the 'Theology of Divine Rivals' series. She shares her thoughts on the duology format and expresses her desire for the story to be a trilogy. Charity discusses the continuation of the story from the first book and the challenges faced by the main characters, Roman and Iris. She highlights the focus on the main conflict and the lack of time spent together by the protagonists. Charity also mentions the inauthentic ending and the underdeveloped side characters. She concludes with her overall opinion and encourages viewers to share their thoughts.

Takeaways
- The duology format may not provide enough time to fully explore the story and characters.
- The second book focuses on the main conflict and spends less time on the romance between the main characters.
- The ending feels inauthentic and out of place with the rest of the story.
- The side characters are underdeveloped and their storylines are not fully resolved.
- The book could have benefited from being a trilogy to allow for more depth and exploration.
