beautyblob 's review for:
A Winter's Promise
by Christelle Dabos
mysterious
slow-paced
Loveable characters:
No
The cover was probably the best bit about this book. The whole novel just fell a bit flat for me, the plot felt non existent, the characters are truly awful and the magic system is very confusing and not explained well. I had no idea how the familial magic system worked, except for the main characters Ophelia and her ability to read objects and this was very underutilised.
I kept waiting for something to happen and then it just ended, I realise this is the start of a series but it kind of ended out of nowhere.
I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.
Thank you to Netgalley, Europa Editions and the author.
