Ink Blood Sister Scribe

Despite loving reading, I don't always warm to books about books, but I was enthralled by this one straight away. It opens in an unusual setting (the Antarctic), though it doesn't stay there, and the characters are immediately real and relatable. The writing is excellent, and the plot with its inter-related mysteries flies along. I usually prefer a standalone fantasy to a series, but I finished this one and immediately wanted more in this world.

This book is enthralling. The characters are well drawn with deep secrets, strong motivations, and believable conflicts. The plot twists and turns, keeping the reader deeply invested in the high-stakes story from start to finish.

What I liked most about this book was how the author introduced multiple characters who initially seemed to have little to do with each other and then slowly wove their various story threads together into a spectacular pattern of perfection by the end.

The narrator for this book totally rocked too. She did awesome accents. Regardless of whether the character was named in dialogue tags,… show more.
