Lark Ascending
by Meagan Spooner
I think the only person more pleasantly surprised by this series is, well me. I am not kidding when I say that I found this series and conclusion satisfying. I'm not sure if it's because I was in the right mood for it or because the book is actually really well thought out and executed.
Lark Ascending went back to what I really liked about the first book and tweaked somethings that kind of deterred me from the second book to deliver what I would say to be a worthy end. Clark's character arc and really everyone's for that matter came full circle and played off really well. I believe going the route this book did paid off in the end. It was also really nice to see Meagan Spooner take risks and give the story and characters stakes in their choices. We are so used to seeing characters and stories setup a stake and then cop out and it was refreshing to see that not ALWAYS be the case here. I also, truly enjoyed the dynamic between Lark and Eve. It was well written and well delivered.
The Skylark Trilogy, although not perfect, was a fresh dystopian world that is beautifully written and captivating.
