A Gathering of Shadows by V.E. Schwab
4.0
That cliffhanger though!
This book sucked me in in a way that the first didn’t quite accomplish. Since all four Londons had already been built in the previous book, this book was all wild plot adventures.
The new characters we met were intriguing and the returning characters only grew with the second part of their story.
I love the way Schwab intertwines reality with fantasy. There’s just enough of the familiar to keep you grounded but so many unexpected folds and layers to the world she’s built.
I’m genuinely sad I didn’t read this series sooner. Because I cannot put it down.
