Seasparrow by Kristin Cashore

5.0

→ 4.75 stars (★★★★.75)

i first read Graceling when i was 11, and it was my favourite book for years afterwards, closely followed by Fire and Bitterblue. i was so excited to return to the Graceling Realm with Winterkeep and Seasparrow, and let me tell you, Kristin Cashore did not disappoint.

this book was remarkably profound and addressed some heavy topics; yet, at the same time, my heart was warmed by the love the characters have for one another (and the love i have for them). filled with exciting action, funny moments, character growth, and a fascinating exploration of how the world works (both scientifically and politically), i was just as engrossed in Seasparrow as i was in Graceling ten years ago. i am so glad that my oldest favourite series withstood the test of time.
