Fable by Adrienne Young

dog_eared_bookworm's review against another edition

4.5

I loved the adventure and world building; there is also an air of mystery to it. 

Being upper YA it was an easy listen, and the narrator was a good choice. 

I do think it could have used a bit more build up for the romance, but hopefully that’ll come with book 2! 

Oh and of course there is a cliffhanger ending; but that’s okay because it’s a fully published duology!

YA fantasy that felt very YA. I'm going to read the next book but this wasn't my favorite.

I literally do not care about the main character, or any of the characters.

Solid YA fantasy. It has a lot a of things that I like: adventure, found family, and a hard headed heroine. I did feel like there was some insta-love here with the characters but I was still drawn to them. Definitely going to pick up the next one!

This was a really fun book that sucked me into the world of swashbuckling pirates, lost treasures, tough lives and found family.

I can’t remember the last time I was so invested in a book because of the world building and not because of the characters/plot. So much so, that even though there’s a sequel, I probably won’t be reading it. The world this book has created is strong enough to stand by itself, and I don’t want that to potentially be ruined by a sequel, where I care too much about the characters and they let me down.

If you ever need a nice dose of escapism, Fable is a book I strongly recommend.
