panThis book piqued my interest after I'd read Memory of Water (which I enjoyed). This one seemed like Itaranta was trying too hard. Some parts I found to be incoherent, or, at the very least, strange enough that I had trouble following the story line.
so-soNot great, not horrible. Not the best world building I have come across.
so-soI have such mixed feeling about this book. I finally finished and was blown away by the last ~25 pages. The world and the descriptions were beautiful, but the plot seemed out of sorts and too late to the punch. At least the main romance (f/f by the way) was well paced and satisfying.
I want to love it! I really do, but I have misgivings. If you like lyrical writing and imaginative worlds, try it out!
I‘ve only just begun, but I have high hopes for The Weaver. Not only do dreams play a crucial role, but apparently there‘s something called the “dream-plague†and I am on board for it. #speculativefiction #scifi #arc
