The Priory of the Orange Tree by Samantha Shannon
5.0
the woman was too stunned to speak
okay it's a few months later and I'm finally able to form an opinion on this book.
I think the rating makes it obvious : I loved this !
Nonetheless I still have a few things to say, starting with the fact that this book is very long. I enjoyed the ride, all of the world building, etc... still, I can't help myself but ask : Was it all worth it ? For me the ending fell kinda flat and I would have expected so much more. Thank god I went into this with almost 0 expectations or else I wouldn't have liked it as much.
I have to say, this book did a good job in keeping me entertained. I was constantly willing to learn more and engage with the characters. This is an epic fantasy and it does its job well, meaning you totally escape the real world.
The characters are really the best thing about this, especially the females. Loved every single one of them, Ead being top of the pyramid of course. They are all so different yet so interesting and well built it amazes me, truly.
to sum this up READ THIS BOOK !!
