suburban_corn 's review for:

Air Awakens by Elise Kova

1.0

---

1.5 stars rounded down. The concepts for the world and plot were both good, and I liked Vhalla. However, the whole effect was spoiled for me by poor writing. Excessive descriptions and dialogue tags stuck out the most to me. (The moon never needs to be called a "celestial orb".) I also don't think I noticed any contractions throughout the book, which made the writing sound stilted and awkward. I finished the book for the sake of the plot, but I wish the writing had been at the same level.
