- Plot- or character-driven? A mix
- Loveable characters? It's complicated
- Diverse cast of characters? No
- Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated
4.5
Sorcery & Cecelia is written as a series of letters between Cecelia, in Essex, and Kate, in London for her first season. The story takes a few letters to get going, but soon enough magic stuff starts happening. Magic in this world is largely confined to small and subtle effects.
The audiobook is fine but I wish the reader gave the girls different voices. I sometimes lost track of who was writing and they both have the same writing style and voice, which does not help.
Highly recommended for any cozy gaslamp fantasy reader.
