Grave Mercy by Robin LaFevers
5.0
This is my new favorite book. This is not a light thing for me to say, as I rarely declare anything to be my favorite. This has everything I want in a book and more. It has strong characters, romance, action, mystery, mythology, death, assassins, wit, historical setting, and really the list could go on and on.
I found the characters to be very well developed, and I was pleasantly surprised at the details given. This book had me on the edge of my seat. I was biting my nails during the suspenseful parts, gasping when I was surprised, laughing at the wit. I was completely consumed by this book.
I enjoyed all the death-related puns, and had such a hard time putting this down. The only "issue" I had was that there was no guesswork as to who the love interest would be. That being said, by the end of the novel, I found I no longer cared. It just worked.
I would love to see her years at the convent turned into a prequel story, and as soon as my Kindle charges I'll be reading Dark Triumph.
