A Reaper at the Gates by Sabaa Tahir

adventurous dark sad tense medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? Yes
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Diverse cast of characters? Yes
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

3.75

3. 8 rating! read this back in Jan. 

Now that I have enough time to think about how I feel, lets get into it!

Out of the 3 books this one was a slight disappointment. Book 2 is my fav thus far but that is with me having not finished book 4 yet. Which I am currently reading. 

my likes:

character development of Helene!!! Fav character in whole series!!
Plot twist was giving!!
Cook... whaaaatt?

dislikes:

The whole cat and mouse vibes were offputting. It seemed to drag out too long and made me bored a lil' bit. However still good plot. 

Laia and Darin... just could not invest in their characters. 

Overall series is still great! 
Looking forward to last book...
