Shadowhouse Fall by Daniel José Older
5.0
4.5/5
WOW. This series has definitely leveled up from book one. Pretty much all of my (few) problems like weird pacing and a voice that seemed a little dumbed-down for teens are all gone, and I can only imagine this series will get better. The plot is stronger, the stakes higher, the magic system/world-building is fantastic and unique, and the political commentary biting and on the nose. I also loved seeing more of the characters from the first book, especially Izzy.
I NEED BOOK 3.
I think my main complaints were (a) the new world-building got a little confusing at times and (b) the love triangle felt underdeveloped and unnecessary. Also, sometimes I felt Anthony's panic attacks were kind of a plot device to further his relationship with Sierra?
Sidenote: Is it just me, or is the cover of this book kind of whitewashing Sierra? It's obviously the girl on the cover isn't white, but I seem to remember Sierra being much darker skinned.
