Five Stages of Bookish Grief: Being Romance Phobic.ARC Review: Six of Crows by Leigh Bardugo.It made it all the more engaging for the reader to empathize with her plight.
She was really in a very grey area and because of that there was a sense of curiosity and conflict about how things were going to go for her. I was invested in seeing her development throughout the novel. She puts others before herself and you can't help but agree with her desire to make things better. She doesn't have the best home life and yet she's still compassionate and caring. Things definitely don't go well for Mori and they haven't been good for awhile now. I sort of viewed it as a Moriarty origin story and because Moriarty is a bit of a villain of the original story we had that kind of time here too, which I love. Which was a good thing because it an investment in the characters who I may not have liked too much if they didn't take the focus.
This was much more of a character-driven novel. It wan't about the mystery, it was about the people and how they responded to it all. And while I think there were some really great elements, this was only an okay read for me.īut that wasn't really the focus of this book. I was also really excited for a complex and interesting mystery. A romance between Sherlock and his arch-nemesis. A Sherlock Holmes Retelling with a female Moriarty. **** I received an advance copy of this book from the publisher via Edelweiss in exchange for an honest review.
