A review by skyzinnia
The Lake of Tears by Emily Rodda

adventurous challenging fast-paced

4.5

The pacing was very similar to the first one, which I appreciate because I like fast-paced books.

I felt pretty much exactly the same as I did the first one. I enjoyed the riddles and puzzles. I like the characters and especially how despite Jasmine not always agreeing with them, she doesn't come off as annoying. She gives her two cents, and they all move on.

The fight was interesting, although I felt like that was too easy of an out for someone that was allegedly an all-powerful being. Same with when they were saved the first time. Both times ended too quickly and too conveniently.

I did enjoy the ending itself though, and I'm really excited to continue on!
