Even if this book were a standalone, I would love it. SO good. SO SO SO good. Wish there was a miniseries based on it or something because that would be awesome!AnimeJunenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7348815.post-4215646071987157382014-03-23T14:12:04.082-06:002014-03-23T14:12:04.082-06:00When I started reading your review I was worried y...When I started reading your review I was worried you were going to trash this one and I'm so glad you didn't! Because it is indeed super awesome and was one my favorite books read last year. In addition to all the great things you point out above, I think the book did one of the better jobs of revealing the world and setting through the narrator being an amnesiac and therefore in the same knowledge place as the reader. The interplay between the two Myfanwy's is also a highlight and it is one reason that while I'm super excited for it, I am also a little nervous about book two in the series. Some of the things that worked so well here will be more difficult to carry forward into a series.Stephanienoreply@blogger.com
