A review by fru_
The Strange Case of the Alchemist's Daughter by Theodora Goss

adventurous mysterious tense medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? Yes
  • Loveable characters? Yes
  • Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

3.5

it was fun, but a little longer than absolutely necessary. and while i loved the characters and enjoyed the story, i will most definitely not be reading the 700 page long sequel 😭 the writing was a little annoying, esp the constant dialogues from the present characters —

also, just found out the author is originally hungarian so that’s fun!!
