The Fragile Threads of Power
by V.E. Schwab
adventurous
dark
mysterious
slow-paced
Plot or Character Driven:
A mix
Strong character development:
Yes
Loveable characters:
Yes
Diverse cast of characters:
Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus:
Yes
It's probably more of a 3.75 but I love V. E. Schwab and I am biased, sue me.
It was great being back in the world, I have missed all the characters, I loved the new introductions - especially Tes and Vares - but this felt like an incredibly long setup for the proper story. It was fun, it was compelling, I loved it, but there was a bit much jumping around to fill the seven-year gap between the last Shades book and the first Threads. Looking forward to seeing where this is going though!
