City of Miracles by Robert Jackson Bennett
4.0

Ah, so satisfying, to see returning characters! Once again, RJB manages to build into the same world, but with a rather different voice and perspective.

The plot trotted right along, though the mystery this time didn't take as much effort as those in past books; the plot and the character development were relatively predictable. It didn't drastically reduce my enjoyment of the text, though I did eyeroll when, at a critical moment, a moment from the past inspires a character to move forward (it was just a bit too stereotypical).

Also cried a bit at the final scene, so I was obviously more emotionally involved than I expected!
