I think this book may have been a little ruined for me because it is part two of a story already started in the previous book. The previous book was really intense, but I had to wait for a month before I got this book - not my fault, I ordered it weeks before I started reading the first part, but there were some stuff with the shop - so this kind of calmed the intensity a lot.
This also lead to the fact that the story was rather slow, somehow.
Part of this may be my own mood, which is kind of tired and there was mostly focus on the trading-part of this story in this book. Holo was hardly even in it, which is kind of a downer with the evolution in the relationship a few books ago. It seems they have just forgotten what happened, which is such a downer.
I hope the next book will be a bit more fun, to be honest, for this one was a disappointed.
I can't give it a 2/5 starts, though, for it was still a good book.

Volume 8 was a drop in quality for me personally, so coming back to the natural banter, emotional scenes, and high-stakes of Spice and Wolf was a homecoming for me.
