bisexualbookshelf 's review for:

The Spear Cuts Through Water by Simon Jimenez
4.0
adventurous emotional mysterious slow-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Complicated
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: Complicated

I think maybe this was too high fantasy for me? It felt like it dragged on a bit, and I never got overly invested in the characters. It's not a bad book by any means, and I think there's a lot here that fans of Jemisin's The Fifth Season would enjoy. It just didn't resonate or stick with me the way it seems to have with a lot of other readers.
