A review by sara_evaney
The Mime Order by Samantha Shannon
2.0
Maybe 2.5 stars
I really struggled to get through this book and I think it will be the last of the series that I read. I didn’t like the first that much, but I was willing to give it another shot because I loved Priory of the Orange Tree.
But nothing happened for like 300 pages. And then I didn’t really care about the things that happened.
There was a plot twist, I guess you can call it, that made me go: so what? Is this supposed to make me want to read the next book? Because it doesn’t.
Also this love story, if that is what it’s supposed to be is completely unnecessary.
Honestly I don’t give a damn if any of these characters die or if the Rephaim win. I tried to like it, but in the end I kinda skimmed the pages because it just didn’t end.
