A review by sarahholliday
The Mime Order by Samantha Shannon

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

4.5

One of the reasons this series is so enjoyable is the ability to see Shannon's writing develop from book to book. 

The Bone Season will always be my "favorite" in the series because it's where I fell in love with a new author, but I do love the way in which Shannon continues to expand the universe without making it too big or overwhelming. 

The Mime Order is infuriating and frustrating in the best possible way, and it's wonderful to see Paige further develop into a competent, passionate leader.
