A review by cunningempress
A Season of Monstrous Conceptions by Lina Rather
Did not finish book.
Thank you to Tor Publishing and NetGalley for providing me with an e-arc in exchange for an honest review.
I just didn't bother to finish this book. The setup seems interesting enough but it deals with child bearing A LOT and that's just a turn-off for me. I don't really care to read about it at all. So I found it very hard to find time to pick this up and ended up reading other books instead.
I'd also worry about how short this is. I didn't realise it's a novella and not a full length novel when I picked it up. There's a lot of potential for the world building and the magic system. I only read half of this book and it was barely mentioned. The book would have been more captivating if that had been more central to the story.
