A review by foreverday
Behemoth by Scott Westerfeld
4.0
I really enjoyed this book. The steampunk element was brilliant and the hopelessly romantic side of me loved the cliche romance. SW has also managed to create a really well rounded world with little details that I appreciated and the illustrations fitted it perfectly (and were beautiful).
I do have the feeling that in a couple of years time I'll read the book and not enjoy it half as much (it's very definitely a YA book) but as it was I really connected with it and found SW's writing style far more engaging than I did the Uglies series (and a little more to my taste.)
Here's to hoping Goliath lives up to it.
