Infernal Devices
by Philip Reeve
This was a much more engaging installment than the previous one! It was refreshing to have some new character perspectives, but I also like how it tied in older characters' stories. The pacing was snappy and I feel like the balance between the different perspectives and stories was good. Reeve does have a quirk of being in one character's perspective for the whole chapter, and then having one paragraph from a different character's POV randomly in there--not so much a fan of that, but it didn't detract too much. I also appreciate how he's handled Hester's character. There's a lot that about her that isn't likable, but it's all understandable, and while I don't agree with much of her actions, I'm not frustrated by them like I was in the previous book.
