Sometimes I can't tell if a book doesn't totally work for me or if I've just read it badly. I really liked the world of The Folk of the Air series, even if that trilogy didn't quite land the way I wanted it to, so I was hoping that this would recapture my favorite aspects of that series. And while there are things I enjoyed it, I think it was just a bit more YA-focused than I was hoping for? The central character's main conflict never quite hit for me, and I spent most of my read basically waiting for the story to get to the big reveal at the end of it. I'm hoping that the sequel will build from that and end up creating a more satisfying story as a whole for me.
Grade: C
