The Glass Swallow by Julia Golding

4.0

This was a delightful little book. It went down easily--I found myself tearing through it, and eager to pick it back up and see what happened to the characters. I found the characters, especially Peri (second book I've read recently with a Peri/Peregrine as the hero. trend?), very likable. Rain was likable too, even if she was a bit of a strong personality for my taste. The romance was sweet, gradual, and believable. The world and cultures Golding created were fun and interesting, and a clever way to address various socio-economic issues. The only characters I didn't care for were the ones that were written that way--Peri's mom, the jettans and jettanas, Shadow and Timber, etc.
This book went by quickly. I'm sorry I don't have any more stories set in this world to read. I liked this even better than Dragonfly.
