lizshayne 's review for:

The Cartographers by Peng Shepherd
3.0
adventurous mysterious fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Plot
Strong character development: No
Loveable characters: No
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: Complicated

I really enjoyed this book and I really wanted to enjoy this book more than I did.
The story itself was a very intriguing experience and what Shepherd manages to do with the conceit is very fun.
And the characters felt a little bit like they were being moved around the map by the author based on what they needed to be rather than acting organically and it felt like motivation and being people was not the most important part of the story.
