A review by jillyfitz
The Bone Shard Daughter by Andrea Stewart

adventurous dark mysterious tense medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? Yes
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

4.5

This book (and the whole series) is information-dense, so go in with your thinking caps on! There's a really unique magic system, questions of inheritance, mystery, political intrigue and unrest, examinations of class, environmental impacts of human behavior, and more. I'm really glad I was able to read all 3 books back-to-back because I don't know if I could have retained all the important information if I had to wait between books.
