A review by dorouu
Godspeed by February Grace
5.0
I first came across this books on Wattpad, I wasn't sure what it was about and judging from the title I didn't think I would be interested.
I was so wrong. (Thankfully)
Miss February Grace writes with an old fashioned prose that fits with the style and timframe of the storyline. I was captured by the uniqueness of the story and all the characters that went along with it. The steampunk side of the story is not something that I've read lately, but I love the idea and I'm craving more.
The main character is a doozy. She's head-over-heels, but not in a bad way. She's an interesting character, weak, but at the same time strong in her own way. The dynamic between her & him is not too rushed, you can feel the two of them slowly building trust and acceptance. The relationships between characters is dynamic and well written. The conversations are not forced, but flow alongside the plot.
There were some parts that I felt were lacking substance. I do wish that she went more in depth about some of the side characters and their back stories, but I was still satisfied with what I read about them.
The ending was wonderful in that after I finished the book, I re-read the last few chapters several times in order to let it sink in.
This book is artfully written and definitely deserves some more attention.
Read!
