Cold Fire by Tamora Pierce
3.0
3.5 stars. Overall, I enjoy this book. I love the descriptions of the city and the layout of it. It sounds like a gorgeous place that I'd love to visit if it was real. Though, some of the descriptions are a bit nonsensical. An accent sounding like a tasty bit of cheese, what?
I dislike Daja's characterization in this book, she's very self-deprecating, especially when it comes to her magic. She's always been so confident before and it felt strange to me. She also has a few new magical abilities which seem like bullshit. I can kind of get behind her being able to see things that happened when she touches some metal, the idea that inanimate objects can hold memories. But not her being to feel what Ben feels while touching it, she's not an empath, it makes no sense.
