dementomstie 's review for:

A Gathering of Shadows by V.E. Schwab
5.0

Oh man. This series continues to be great.

there is a lot of build up here, with lots of things like secret identities and hidden schemes and far off evil getting closer and closer. And it all works so well.

There is just enough foreshadowing to make you nervous and then everything starts just running and running at the end, picking up a momentum that leads to an ending that I figured was inevitable but the time I got to it, but which still had some good twists and such in it.

I'm looking forward to the next book, hopefully it comes out soon so I remember what happened in this one. I probably won't forget the ending, but some of the middle stuff I might be a little hazy on, like most books.
