A review by mirandanoel
The Serpent and the Wings of Night by Carissa Broadbent
fast-paced
- Plot- or character-driven? Plot
4.5
Like if Twilight and The Hunger Games had an offspring, and then that offspring grew up and got really horny
Update after finishing sequel:
The characters are sometimes cliché, the magic system is not very robust, and the accomplishments of the MC are sometimes far-fetched. That being said, I think the book is very successful in what it’s trying to be. The flaws of the book are very easy for me to overlook because the don’t detract from the impact of the book. An added bonus, the sequel is just as good as the first.
