A review by lory_enterenchanted
The Square of Sevens by Laura Shepherd-Robinson

adventurous challenging dark mysterious tense

3.5

I wanted something immersive and compelling, and this was that for the most part, but lacking in some substance. I knew of course there would be a twist from the start, and when it came out, I felt somehow cheated of the enjoyment I had in the foundational narrative. I don't think that's how a twist should work. The elaborate fortune-telling structure was more significant for the author than the reader, I think.
