A Gathering of Shadows by V.E. Schwab
5.0
This was a reread for me, but it was still a magical journey!
I last read this book a few years back but I could not believe how much I had forgotten! I remembered the tournament and Lila being onboard Alucard’ s boat, but wowza was there so much more that went down!
Somehow I thought Lila and Kell’s relationship was more like a stolen kiss but beyond that they were two ships passing at sea, destined to never quite be together. But cue a hot little make out sesh that I SOMEHOW had forgotten and now I love their relationship even more!
What it truly surprising for me is that this series is a much slower-paced book then I normally go for but what keeps me going is:
✔️ the shorter chapters
✔️ the character development
✔️ the writing style
It’s one of my favorite series even though it’s not my normal speed, and for that I love it all the more!
