Review: The Dark Days Pact

The Dark Days Pact by Alison Goodman
My rating: 2 of 5 stars

This book was generously provided to me by the publisher via Library Thing. let's start with the pacing. This book was a little slower going for me. I found the characters were not wholly fleshed out ( this may be because it is book two and I haven't yet read book one).

The world building was of reasonable quality. I did feel certain elements could have been delved into a bit deeper, such as when someone is considered unreclaimable. the descriptions of clothing were apt for the time period of the story.

I liked how she handled her token gay. that being said that is all it felt like, a token character. I felt the grand deceiver/ reclaimer bit refreshing. nobody is expected to save the world alone here.

ultimately it was a decent book, it just didn't fully click for me at this time. I will reread down the road after having read the first book.
