adventurous challenging dark emotional sad tense slow-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Diverse cast of characters? No
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

thank you to netgalley and to the publisher for a digital copy of cards of fate.

2 stars.

a promising concept, i was very intrigued with both the cover and the description when i saw it on netgalley. but, unfortunately, it underwhelmed me. it was rather flat and slowly became more and more of a chore to read. the plot twist by the end was something i anticipated, which made it less exciting and shocking. the love story between morgana and leo needed more chemistry in my opinion. feelings between childhood friends is a cute trope, but in this book i just didn’t feel… anything.

it was a somewhat nice read at the beginning and by the end, but it just felt too long and dragged out.
