Blood Magic by Tessa Gratton

4.0

This book has great "mood," and I found myself thinking about it when I wasn't reading it, wanting to get back to the story. The dialogue is the worst part, though. Characters say each others' names too much, and there aren't many characters for that to be necessary. Even though it starts quickly, with little exposition, there's a real pacing problem. I like shifting 1st person pov's, but this shifted so frequently that I often had to remind myself who was narrating. This wouldn't have been a problem if the two main characters had stronger "voices."
