A Dark and Drowning Tide by Allison Saft

4.25

adventurous dark mysterious tense medium-paced

Plot or Character Driven: A mix

Loveable characters: Complicated

Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

I really really enjoyed this book.It was all the things i love from a book,Sapphic, magic,politics, and a good mystery.

Lorelei was a character that i fell in love with straight away,she is quite a complex character who faces a lot of challenges. whereas Sylvia was a character that i really just found annoying in the beginning but did learn to love as the book progressed.I really enjoyed their relationship with each other as its very much academic rivals and i do really enjoy that dynamic.

I really enjoy the aspect of the main group of people together as they all distrust each other its very interesting to read its very much a forced proximity situation which is always great.I did enjoy that as the book went on people were revealed to be not who i thought they were it was super interesting to read.

I cant wait to read more from Allison Saft as i love her work and this is definitely another great book from her.

Arc from Daphne Press and Netgalley thank you.
