A Heart So Fierce and Broken by Brigid Kemmerer
4.0
I knew this book was different from the first, and I’m glad that I went in with some knowledge of what/who this books is about, because otherwise I might have been too surprised.
My favorite aspect of this series is the character work. In ACSDAL, I really liked Harper, Grey and Rhen. This book continues on with good character work with Grey and a new main character, Mia Lara. I really really liked Mia Lara as a character. She’s not your typical sword-wielding-assassin-princess that we get so often in YA (and that’s part of why I love Harper so much too). She’s much more realistic? while still being brave and strong and kind. This book was definitely about developing side characters and giving them their own book—Jake and Noah for example (although Jake honey, you’re in a fantasy land, why would you ever want to go back to D.C???)
I was initially a little upset over such little Harper and Rhen chapters, but I get why there wasn’t many. This book also starts to examine the mental state to the characters post-curse and starts to dig into the fact that they have some pretty bad PTSD.
I just want all my characters sitting around a fire together, talking and laughing and getting along
