In a Garden Burning Gold by Rory Power
3.0
This is really a 3.5.
I ended up liking this book a lot more than I thought I would. I wasn't a big fan of Wilder Girls, but I liked the description of this one and wanted to give it a chance.
While it started out slow and didn't really keep my interest at first, it kept getting more and more interesting and at about 40% of the way in I was hooked.
The names of everyone in the beginning was unnecessary because they made it seem like keeping track of everyone's name and where they were from was more important than it was.
Sometimes I had questions about the magic and how it worked and why.
But I did like the sibling dynamics and the themes of family and sacrifice.
