queerbooksupremacy 's review for:

Sword Catcher by Cassandra Clare
3.75
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: No
Loveable characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

the last 200 hundred pages REALLY elevated and made the story so much better

the first 400 pages were,,, a struggle. this book was good! but it also felt quite,, boring. and a lot of set up for something that needed to have been set up a lot earlier in a 600 page book. i shouldn’t have to read 500 pages to get a little bit of action or to read 400 to realise oh wait, that guys not the love interest at all. i wanted more to happen and needed more character development to become invested.

i am VERY intrigued to pick up the next one though! the ending was! something for sure!
