A review by danajoy
Gallant by V.E. Schwab

dark mysterious medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? Yes

3.0

This is The Turn of the Screw mixed with the Darker Shade of Magic series but from the perspective of a child/orphan.

Gothic and atmospheric it is definitely a solid read but it felt a bit too familiar for me.

I did enjoy having a mute protagonist. Its always nice seeing disabled main characters.

The audiobook had some fun florishes - the sound of a pen crossing things out/tearing paper. I would recommend it.
