finndr reviewed A Darker Shade of Magic by V. E. Schwab (Shades of Magic, #1)
Review of 'A Darker Shade of Magic' on 'Goodreads'
3 stars
Intriguing premise where worldbuilding is concerned. The characters are likeable, though kind of trope-y. The book's weakest element is its over-the-top, shallow and unrelatable villains.
I listened to the German audiobook (and read some parts of the original in between). If you're looking for an audiobook that's not too demanding and easy to follow, this one works.
