A review by britneygee
Jade City by Fonda Lee
4.0
Honestly, with all of the romantasy focused books, it's been a while since I read something so squarely fantasy. I went into this book excited to read an urban fantasy novel, and Jade City was such a refreshing read with a cool magic system.
This book strikes a great balance between plot and character. While I don't love any of the characters, I am invested in the choices they make and how their decisions impact the family and the city. There are also plenty of other enjoyable elements, the family drama, external family feuds, and the city's underground wheelings and dealings. Looking forward to book 2!
