A review by ashurq
Shadow Fall by Audrey Grey

3.0

This book was so weird. That's basically all I have to say. The premise of the Trials was really intriguing to me and I did actually enjoy that part of the book, but there was A LOT of buildup to get there. I also had a hard time with the whole "borrowing someone else's body" thing and the double consciousnesses and all of that. It was just kind of confusing and I felt like it made it so the author could conveniently explain away some things: "Of course she didn't have this ability, but the girl whose face she was wearing did which made it so she could do this special thing". The whole family relationships are strange too. Overall, I think this was just a very complicated world and it wasn't explained all the way.

Note: I received this book free from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
