On...I'm so glad you loved Finnikin of the Rock! One of the best fantasies every in my opinion. One of the things I love so much about Melina Marchetta's writing is how she makes really flawed characters into the strongest ones. It's something she does in the next two books as well, and it really brings a lot of depth to her stories. Great review Mari! I can't wait to read your thoughts on the rest of the series!Bookish Whimsyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16028950059555351758noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2496131500664070518.post-43610486214372011122014-06-16T10:29:12.925-04:002014-06-16T10:29:12.925-04:00YAY so glad you loved this book, because we did to...YAY so glad you loved this book, because we did too. Sure, there are some things that could have been better -- we agree Evanjalin wasn't always the greatest -- but that's okay.

I think I really need to get to them soon! Maybe once I finish Eon and Eona, I'll add them to my pile of "books before sleep".<br />Thanks for a great review, Mari!

It's probably why I noticed and analyzed so much into her. Still, this author is beyond anything I've ever seen before. I'm very excited!<br /><br />-MariAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17045558423044874125noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2496131500664070518.post-7974936547706027262014-06-14T07:21:54.326-04:002014-06-14T07:21:54.326-04:00I really enjoyed this one!

I really shipped her with Finnikin. I couldn't get over how detailed the world was.
