Tess of the Road by Rachel Hartman
4.0

3,5 stars.

Tess is adorable and very very human. I was in love with her character.

I am not a fan of voyage/trip books because they always feel like the characters didn’t get anywhere. Here, however, Tess gets to where she’s supposed to be, in my opinion.

However, I think the book drags in some chapters, going to much into detail when they’re not interesting. I jumped a few minutes in some chapters and that’s why the 3,5.

This book is about a human girl that, yes, meets mythical creatures, but at the end of day is a book about that girl that is just trying to find herself.
