lizshayne 's review for:
The Grief of Stones
by Katherine Addison
emotional
reflective
sad
Plot or Character Driven:
Character
Strong character development:
Yes
Loveable characters:
Yes
Diverse cast of characters:
Complicated
Flaws of characters a main focus:
Complicated
Me: I'm really appreciating how much care and thought Addison puts into what recovery from depression and trauma looks like and how it slowly builds around a character.
Also me: JUST KISS ALREADY
I'm quietly fascinated by Addison's choice to use the model of the mystery to keep exploring this world and it feels like it's working really well. And I also just love Thara "I have no friends" Celehar surrounded by all the people who are like "how dare you, what am I?"
It's just so good.
Addison is also Tolkinesque in her interest in how words shape society and the philology at the heart of the story, You know, for the rest of us nerds.
