The Harp and the Ravenvine by Ted Sanders
5.0
Even better than the first one, and the first one was already great.
My favorite thing about this series is the characters. Brian, Isabel, and April are new, but they integrate really well into the story. April is quiet, but delivers deadpan lines that are s o unintentionally funny. Brian is an interesting character with an interesting power, and I can’t wait to learn more about him. I don’t trust or like Isabel, but I also feel bad for her, but I also feel worse for Chloe, and this character complexity is so damn satisfying.
And the dynamics?? Chloe and Brian have, without fail, the funniest interactions ever. The chaos that is the grouping of Horace, Chloe, April, and Brian. Family dinner with Horace, Jessica, Chloe, Isabel, and Joshua which was a nightmare and ergo, highly entertaining. Neptune, Chloe, and Horace just trying to have a conversation while their brains were basically fried. Chloe’s torment over Isabel and her intentions. April wanting to be friends with Chloe and Chloe reluctantly doing so
