The Vanishing Stair
by Maureen Johnson
3/5 stars
TW: Abduction, Alcoholism, Anxiety, Death, Dissection, Murder, Panic and Anxiety Attacks, Smoke, social anxiety
I've decided that I really don't enjoy this series. While I like the setting and the overall backdrop, I felt like there was an imbalance with the plot between the characters or and the general plot. I felt like characters didn't really grow and it was so character heavy (which is fine, but considering the plot of the book, you'd think it would lean toward the plot over the characters). I really feel like the lack of growth also inhibited the plot from forming cohesively.
Overall, it felt like there was just something missing and I really don't feel like picking up the third book and see how the series goes.
