Thanks, Cecilia! You don't realise how much you actually crave a good baddie until there isn't one...

That's a good way of putting it, but definitely not as dark as you would think. The lack of depth needed to attract a younger audience was apparent in the happy storylineIce dragon wrote: ↑15 Dec 2018, 20:40 It sounds dark, I'll probably check it out as I'm interested in the cultural portrayal of mental illness and suicide. It sounds like it may take the stigma out of the taboo.
Great review
Thanks for commenting!

I know right? With suicide as a beginning - you would wonder how the author managed to make it so happy!Cotwani wrote: ↑15 Dec 2018, 23:28 Who would have guessed from the cover and title that this would end up being a casual fun read? The presence of an antagonist always spices up things. I'm curious how the author succeeds in building an all sunshine and rainbows ensemble, that leads nowhere. Great review as always.
Thanks, Cotwani

I know! I'm really hoping the next book in the series delves deeper into the fun stuffkfwilson6 wrote: ↑16 Dec 2018, 23:07 What an interesting premise for a story. I can sew why you were anxious to read it. I am quite startled by your declaration that nothing really happens. I anticipated a story about people with talents derived from animals would be quite action-packed. And no baddies? Superpowers make superheroes so the can fight the baddies. What a letdown

It doesn't detract - yet! I hope the follow up books have a solid baddie, thoughShrabastee wrote: ↑17 Dec 2018, 06:31 A succinct review of a book with an interesting premise! I would love to read this one. However, I am of the opinion that "every fantasy story needs a good, old-fashioned villain." Although that does not detract from the reading experience, I hope!
