A review by accidentalspaceexplorer
The Snow Queen by Joan D. Vinge

3.75

I started reading this and got about 70 pages in and wasn't vibing with it much. I put it down for about a week, picked it up again and this time enjoyed it enough and was immersed enough to carry me through the rest of the book. So it definitely has a slow start, and it's a pretty slow book in general, with not a ton happening throughout the book besides the political intrigue, but I ultimately ended up enjoying the book for the political intrigue and the complicated worldbuilding. The sibyls are really interesting, and I was glad to get more information about how and why they exist.
