3.5

As much as I want to rate this higher, this story left a LOT to be desired. While the writing is beautifully lyrical, it leaves a lot of the character subtlety and growth underdeveloped. The characters are rich with potential, but there's a lot of repetitive introspection. Ultimately this is still a wonderful YA Fantasy, but not as cohesive as some of the others I've read.
