anastasiaf 's review for:

The Cartographers by Peng Shepherd
3.5

I had serious issues with pacing throughout the book, especially the characters shock at the magical element which was so incredibly obvious. I was upset because i was worried that there would be nothing else to the story, but thankfully there was.

The problem on reflection is all the gaps (though the magical element was too well trodden) - why such fixation on aglo when lots of these places must have existed? Why certain deaths? 

I also wasn’t a big fan of the Ramona voice, which made her chapters almost unbearable.
