19wongfo2 's review for:
A Dark and Drowning Tide
by Allison Saft
4.25* - the scenery and descriptions of flora and fauna were enchanting and my favourite aspect of this book. Another highlight was the fairytales interspersed throughout the book, which were creative and beautifully told; the writing style was just perfect for the atmosphere of the story. I can absolutely see why people love Allison Saft's other books if they're as well written. It was just missing a little bit of plot - I wanted more twists and didn't love the resolution of the book. Also, I didn't feel particularly attached to any of the characters or the romance, until the very last scene:
"... and maybe someday, with time, the world will realize there was never anything wrong with someone like me loving someone like you."
"That is a fantasy," Lorelei whispered. "The loveliest fairy tale I have heard in all my life."
This scene was gorgeous and got me in my feels, happy pride month <3
