isabellehendo 's review for:
The Familiar
by Leigh Bardugo
disappointing.
bardugo is such a hit or miss author for me (six of crows - BANGER, ninth house - banger, shadow and bone - mediocre). and now i add the familiar into her list as mediocre.
the plot, characters, and writing were flimsy and uninteresting. there was absolutely nothing in this book that truly felt entertaining. i find that bardugo’s strength as a writer (in her books/series that i loved) are in her characters. this novel fell so short, as i simply did not care about the characters. so much of it felt cobbled together and rushed, yet it also somehow dragged.
overall, not a fan.
