West | 
pickWest is the sequel to East, both were really good. It is YA fantasy, set in a pretty well thought out world with various mythologies influencing the story. I really like the wind-magic system, and I also enjoy the "hero in need of rescuing" flip, usually it's the damsel in distress but not with these books! I would love to see these be made into a movie ?
so-so⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ (3.5/5)
This was a solid sequel to Pattou‘s “East”, however I feel like it failed to be as a good as the first book. In general, I wasn‘t a fan of Charles‘ memory loss storyline, and I was disappointed that Sib and Neddy‘s story was rushed with plot holes and a lack of context. I wish we had more of an epilogue, and as always, I wish there was a map so we could visualize the characters‘ journeys.
pickThe plot to West closely resembles East, but in a good, familiar way. Obviously, she has changed everything up and added the perspective of Rose's ward, Estelle. I can understand some people thought the plot was too closely resembled. Charles goes missing, Rose has to drop everything and go find him. Again, the plot was fast paced but I think that if it wasn't, it wouldn't be as engaging to me.
Thank you, @Megabooks for this lovely #25Etsy giveaway!! Etsy is one of my favorite sites 😊 My favorite summer read was West by Edith Pattou! It's a sequel to her book, East, which is a retelling of East of the Sun, West of the Moon! I can't recommend it enough!
pickComing thirteen years after Edith Pattou‘s East, West is a beautiful continuation of her retelling of East of the Sun, West of the Moon. Pattou is a master world builder. You can‘t help but feel the wind playing in your hair and the crunch of snow under your feet. Rose is a few years older in West, but time hasn‘t diminished her bravery and determination to rescue the people she loves. I highly recommend this duology!
