Last First Snow by Max Gladstone

3.0

It's been a while since I read this book and I'm still not sure if I like it or not.
It's well written - Max is a terrific writer and there are so many beautiful passages.
And the storyline is well-crafted. It all revolves around one place, and the actions, consequences, and everyone involved in these all feel natural.
I think what the story was about awas just not totally up my lane? Also - I didn't really feel any fondness for anyone. Kelayne is very cool, but unlike Tara and Abelard who I've come to really love after the first book, I couldn't really connect with her.
I felt the most for Mina, probably on account of how much I loathed Temoc. Fuck that guy. Poor Caleb.
