The Thief on the Winged Horse by Kate Mascarenhas

4.0

I really liked this book, it kept me turning the pages, the characters were well fleshed out and i can see what the author was trying to say about being your own person and women can do the same as men, but this only came to the forefront for me towards the end and maybe it would have been better if it was more developed from mid way so that some of the main characters could have more of a say, but thats a small point on my part. The only other thing was I wouldn’t class this too much in the fantasy genre in the fact that once you know how the sorcerers put the enchantments on the dolls then it really doesn’t seem as enchanting (sorry about the pun) as it was with the mystery of it at the beginning. So this part felt a bit weak to me, i don’t want to give anything away on this so can’t say much more. That being said i did really enjoy the style of writing and i would read another book by this author as she kept me engaged from beginning to end.
