Spinning Silver by Naomi Novik
mysterious
tense
slow-paced
- Plot- or character-driven? A mix
- Strong character development? It's complicated
- Loveable characters? It's complicated
- Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
- Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated
4.0
I think this book is beautifully written but just wasnt my vibe at the time. I loved Miriam, Wanda, and Irina and thought this book beautifully explored relationships with family. The relationships with the Staryk King and Tsar were so lightly written that I almost found the book ending to fast. Over all solid fairy tale retelling but I wish there was a little more focus on potential romantic relationships.
