The South Wind by Alexandria Warwick
3.0

I’m going to preface this review by saying I absolutely loved the first two books and I may have overhyped this in my head, but this one was rather disappointing. 

The South Wind felt like Sarai complaining for 70% then I was like finally the Labyrinth and then it was just learning about her childhood and not a lot else??? 

The North Wind and The West Wind both had great plot that was driven by the characters and actions. This really lacked any action driven plot. I was pretty bored the entire time. 

Alexandria Warwicks writing style definitely saved this from being a DNF for me. I love how she uses language to create gorgeous imagery and such visceral emotion. 

I’m really hoping the East Wind is as brooding and mischievous as he is made out to be in his introduction in this story so I’m looking forward to that. 

Thank you to Simon & Schuster and NetGalley for the eARC of this book. This is my honest opinion.
