The Familiar
by Leigh Bardugo
This was my first Leigh Bardugo book, and I really enjoyed it! I thought her writing was very atmospheric and I’m so glad that I waited until spooky season to read this one. I also thought the characters were well developed with clear motivations. I particularly liked the FMC and how determined she was to live life on her own terms. I had zero clue what this was about when I picked it up, so there were several points where the plot took a little turn that I wasn’t expecting, and that definitely kept me invested in the story.
I did feel like the pace was a little slow at times, and I was also a little bit confused by some of the politics going on (both with the government and within their social circles) but overall, I thought this made for a great read!
