Giving a rating for this one was tough. Not much happened during 90% of the book but I still quite enjoyed it. With so much of the story set in place now, I have high hopes for the next book! I also loved the narrator (audiobook)!

Increasingly better as I read. The beginning I wasn't very attached to anybody, by the end it was beautiful and exciting

Last year I searched and searched for a contemporary YA book that incorporated Persian lore, specifically the Shahnameh. I didn’t find it until I randomly picked this up! The writing isn’t as good as A Very Wide Expanse of Sea, but the plot is solid and I read the whole book in one day because I needed to know what happened. Compelling characters, and a twist at the end that prevented it from being all trope, and allowed it to become a series…and I’m headed to the library for the others immediately!

This Woven Kingdom was slow but interesting. However, the ending went in directions I didn't care for. I'm not sure if I'll continue this series.
