pomegranateseedpress 's review for:
The Poison Jungle
by Tui T. Sutherland
I've been reading this series to the kids during the pandemic. This one came back and saved the storyline a bit - Blue's story felt so flat and dull - kind of like his character. Cricket's story didn't really move me much either - I'm not certain why.
I surprisingly loved the books on the other continent. But these Pantala dragons' story arcs/personalities and evolutions didn't happen for me. However, I did feel a little more character evolution with Sundew. We laughed so much in the books 1-10. Funny characters and storylines. These books - I just don't find us laughing or feeling riveted to find out what happens next. I will say I loved the jungle and the plant speak powers and how they had to reckon with the mistakes of the past. So this one brings it a bit back though I wish Willow had more of a backbone and that Tsunami sounded more like herself. I didn't even recognize her in this story which was a shame because I would've loved to see her interact in the way her personality should have.
