A review by saracat
Lava Red Feather Blue by Molly Ringle

5.0

I first want to thank NetGalley and Central Avenue Publishing for giving me early access to this title in exchange for an honest review.

I absolutely adored this book. I laughed, squeed, sobbed, was in suspense, felt anxious, was surprised, and so much more. I truly appreciate the complexity Ringle brought to each character. I loved how even though reading the book felt like an escape, it also remained realistic, in that, it was not a perfect, fairytale story. That being said, by the end of chapter one, I had a lot of assumptions and expectations of some of the key plot points that might happen in the book. However, I found the book and story so well written, that even when those things did happen, I still thoroughly enjoyed reading every page of the book.

There is so much more I want to say about this book, but I am not sure how else I can express my love for this book without giving away spoilers. If you love fantasy, fae, quests, LGBTQ representation, magic, and/or well written, complex characters, I highly encourage you to pick up this book once it's out. Once you start, you won't be able to think about anything else until you've reached the end. And then you'll still be thinking about it.
