The Cartographers by Peng Shepherd
3.25
adventurous mysterious slow-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: No
Loveable characters: Complicated
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

This could have been exceptional. It just fell short on many major plot points. Unexpectedly, the side characters held the most intrigue to me. I only just finished this and I feel like I've forgotten most of what happened or maybe just not that much did happen? 

It was beautifully well written, and the concept had all the foundations to be unforgettable. If an extra 200-300 pages of world building where added, that explored all the possibilities that this just skimmed over that would have made a book I would want to read over and over again.
