leahrosereads 's review for:

A Darker Shade of Magic by V.E. Schwab
5.0

10/5/19

Finally getting around to writing a review after my third read of this! And it's still not going to be a great review.

I absolutely love this trilogy! I love the characters and the setting and the trials that the characters go through. I love Lila, Kell and Rhy individually and together with their banters. And of course, I love Holland and his real struggling vibes.

And honestly, I dig the big (and bigger) bads here. The twins are a creep factor of like 1000, and I just love when my big bads are that disturbing.

VE Schwab does a great job at building not just a world, but a universe here. One that I can see her expanding (obviously, lol) in the future.
