A review by abbievillehorror
Inheritance by Malinda Lo
4.0
Although this book was a little slow for a good chunk of the middle, it was because Malinda was taking her time to deftly and intelligently tackle some big issues and concepts, just as she did in the first one. But, I do think a little too much time was spent on those topics this time, causing a bit of a mid-book slump. Once the action picked up again, however, it was unputdownable and thrilling.
The relationships in this duology are really the cornerstone of the story, which is why I’m willing to cut Malinda a break for taking time from the major sci-do plot to focus on them. In the end, it was a satisfying end to this story with an unexpectedly delightful resolution to the love triangle.
Reese will always hold a special place in my heart for her journey to self-discovery and bisexuality, and I will forever love Malinda Lo for taking the time to write that into a genre book.
