A Darker Shade of Magic by V.E. Schwab

5.0

I loved the character development that Kell went through. Becoming stronger and more brave with the turn of each page. His willingness and acceptance of what he thought he had to do to protect his loved ones! Well respected. I also love the interaction citizens of red London had with him.
Then there’s Delilah…
She can be scared, but hides it so well. She’ll put on a brave face in the toughest moment. Loyal.
The relationship they develop between each other is witty but caring. It’s grown in a natural way and isn’t “in your face”.
The characters are flawed, their human, natural.
Bottom line- great book and I’ll definitely be reading the next books!
