A review by bookcasey
Half a Soul by Olivia Atwater

adventurous dark reflective medium-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? Yes
• Loveable characters? Yes
• Diverse cast of characters? No
• Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

4.0

If you like the idea of regency period pieces and the snippets of witty banter but think that things tend to be a little dry on the plot side, this is worth your time. Some elements feel a bit predictable, but the overall effect is so fun that it’s quickly forgiven.

Content Warnings

Graphic: Ableism

Moderate: Classism

Minor: Medical content, Violence, War, Slavery, Injury/Injury detail, Forced institutionalization, Domestic abuse, and Death of parent

I do want to caution that there’s content that feels like neurotypical ableism, so you may see yourself and some of the malicious things people say.
