libraryofdreaming 's review for:
Tess of the Road
by Rachel Hartman
This is a really hard book for me to rate. I found parts to be very moving and enjoyable. However, the dark and mature themes of this book were just too much for me in the end. I thought I was prepared, but I was not in the right mindset and they overwhelmed me.
After rereading the wonderful Seraphina duology, this book just didn't compare. I found the pacing to be very slow. Several plot things just happen without ultimate repayment and I found that to be rather unsatisfying. I won't deny that certain parts of this book are very well done and certainly thought-provoking. Ultimately though, after 500+ pages, I feel more unnerved than satisfied.
