Thank you to NetGalley and Berkley Publishing Group for the opportunity to read Broken Souls and Bones by LJ Andrews.

We are following Lyra and Roark in this story. We get both povs throughout the book. 

There is a war in Stigandr and Lyra is soon discovered as a melder. She is then taken to help the King and Roark is deemed the task as Lyra’s bodyguard. 

I enjoyed this authors work before, when I read The Ever King. However, I struggled a bit with this story. The pacing was slow and it was difficult to connect with the characters. To summarize this story isn’t for me.

Did I read the same book as everyone else? I’m not seeing why this is such a big deal.
