A review by noregrets4life33
Indelible by Dawn Metcalf
4.0
Some things stay with you forever. Indelible in all their glory.
I was apprehensive of this book. There are mixed reviews on it. But in the end, I ended up rather enjoying it and many facets of it. Maybe not quite four stars, but not really three for me either. Maybe 3.75?
It's hard to give a synopsis of this book. And almost better just to experience it for yourself. Suffice it to say it has love, fey, trickery, and lots of bad luck for our Main Girl, Joy.
The best parts of this book were the characters and some of the whimsy and uniqueness of it. Ink, Inq, Claus, Joy.. there were all fun and unique. UNIQUE is really the best word for this book. Ms. Metcalf has succeed in that.
The biggest problem is it is somewhat confusing at times. But to this I say you have to just take some of the info dumps and descriptions at face value. The author obviously has it all mapped out in her head and chose to write it in this way. Perhaps some of the mystery and confusion adds to the mystique of this book. You just have to go along with it and try to follow along as best you can and if you are slightly confused some, just keep going. It'll make some sense eventually, and even if it doesn't you don't have to fully understand all the details to still have fun and end up wanting more.
I will definitely be looking for the rest of this series when it comes out. I would recommend this book to fans of no love triangle, a very different kind of love interest that doesn't think like a human, and those that want to experience a different kind of world and reality. This is oone of those books it's hard to write a review on, so I'll leave it at this.
