Long Live Evil by Sarah Rees Brennan

adventurous dark funny medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? Yes
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Diverse cast of characters? Yes

4.5

the premise, setting, and characters of this book made it a solidly enjoyable read, but it found it someone chaotic/confusing as i couldn’t really get a proper feel for the characters and what they were doing and why they were doing it
until MAJOR PLOT THINGS started happening in the last quarter of the book and sent me REELING 
i was surprisingly devastated by key’s death because i kind of liked him and was rooting for him but then the way it all turned out in the end MADE SO MUCH SENSE AND ALSO WAS SO TRAGIC.
i also really liked marius’ character development which was cool bc i started out not liking him very much.
