Sorcery of Thorns

(3.5/5)

Salut 💜

So Sorcery of Thorns....

The writing is nice, with a lot of descriptions of the surroundings, the magical books and libraries, the city, etc.
Although the end dragged a little in my opinion (problem of pacing ?), I think the story could have been more exploited and expanded, but maybe im not one for one shots in fantasy lol.

The POV was only from the main character Elizabeth, but I found her a little bland (not annoying or anything). I felt like her motivations were not very clear at the beginning for example, and the romance is very basic ahah (I love reading the romantic storyline normally but oh well better luck next time).
Nathaniel was refreshing when he appeared on the page, I loved his humor and his relationship with Silas. Silas was so interesting to read about and he also added an unexpected but welcome touch of humor.

The book was okay when I was reading it, but I didn’t have the need or will to read it, I didn’t think about it you know... (maybe it is my slump, maybe it is the book...)
I don’t want to say too much on the plot since its a one shot obviously, so in conclusion : A “basic” fantasy but well made^^.
