goodeyreads 's review for:

A Multitude of Dreams by Mara Rutherford
3.0
medium-paced

 KIND OF FORGETTABLE.

I read this book two days ago and as I’m sitting here trying to write this review I am remembering very little. It just kind of happened and I’ve already moved on?

The gothic vibes were there and I did like those. There’s a hidden identity trope and that’s always a favorite of mine. Waiting for the two points of view to collide was good and some of the world development was there. Though I don’t think the intention of the story worked well in this pure fantasy vs. a historical fantasy.

Otherwise, I think a lot of execution was lacking. I don’t totally get the vampire/zombie thing. I wasn’t invested in the romance and with it being a shorter standalone I just needed more.

Overall audience notes:
- YA Fantasy
- Language: very little
- Romance: Fade to black
- Violence: moderate
- Trigger/Content Warnings: anti-Semitism, plague, loss of life
