A review by burniereads
Reckless by Cornelia Funke

3.0

I have really mixed opinions on this one. I think one of the problems was I read this thinking it was a standalone so the pacing felt kind of off. Now that I know this is part of a series, the pacing makes more sense. I enjoyed the writing, although some things were inevitably a bit off due to translation, and I was never bored. The characters are really cool and the world is super interesting, but I just kind of got annoyed at how many times Jacob would get like this close to fixing everything and then mess it all up (not saying he messed it up, more so the characters around him or the plot).
