A review by tripleblacktri
The Traitor Baru Cormorant by Seth Dickinson

4.0

This book was a guaranteed 5 stars for me...until the ending. I think this might be the opposite of most people, but 1) I didn't exactly love what happened although this would be excusable but 2) she was the POV character and somehow kept the secret from us the whole time. I feel a little cheated* that we were exposed to all of her thoughts throughout the journey but the ultimate betrayal was somehow hidden. Unless I'm missing something, the twist shouldn't have been possible.

Ultimately, it was still a great book, but the ending left a weird taste in my mouth. A hard book to review for sure.

*For lack of a better word
