A review by ariw
Spellbook of the Lost and Found by Moïra Fowley-Doyle

3.0

I actually liked this a lot more than I thought I would, and so much of it is beautiful and surprising and holds echoes of stories by authors like [a:Anna-Marie McLemore|6434877|Anna-Marie McLemore|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1516319453p2/6434877.jpg]. The biggest "twist" is almost immediately obvious, but it's still a lovely/bittersweet/salt-slow-sad winding journey til all the pieces actually connect on the page. Many deep things are dealt with really well, though others are a bit vague and still more happenings

Spoiler

like the whole end-twist with Ivy, who in general is an underdeveloped character not helped by the dubious reveal of her parentage and what this means for... previous developments

taint it all just a little too much for me to think of this as highly as I'd have liked.
