A Darker Shade of Magic
by V.E. Schwab
I loved almost everything in this book. The world V.E. Schwab created immediately captivated me; I could not put the book down. I love Kell and I couldn't help but feel for him; It's obvious how much he loves Rhy, but he's clearly seen as a possession of the crown... I just couldn't help but feel angry FOR him.
This all being said, I couldn't give the book 5 starts because I could not come to terms with Delilah. I just think she's the worst. Lol. I spent 80% of the book wanting to shake her. I know that growing up in Grey London and obviously having had to fight to stay alive would make her distrustful and rough around the edges; I also know that as her character develops she will most likely evolve but for now... I can't deal with how selfish she is. I really wanted to like the strong female lead in this book but so far... It's been hard.
Is this just me? Does everyone else love her? Am I crazy?!
I also have to assume we'll find out she'd an Antari, based on the glass eye and Master Tieren's comment about her having magic. I hate it when I see things coming, so hopefully I'll be proven wrong.
