Splinters of Scarlet by Emily Bain Murphy

Wowwww
I haven’t read in like three weeks because I’ve had sat but this was a great way to go back in
Firstly I didn’t know this was historical fiction and neither did I know it was fantasy as well
It was unexpected but very very welcome!
This book is very well paced and I like that the author didn’t do any filler chapters, because in a setting such as this I would have gotten very bored
While I really like the characters I was more compelled by the plot of uncovering all those mysteries because mysteries confuse me
The whole concept of different people having different forms of magic was unique, in most books with magic, people have fire water earth mind and blah blah, there’s nothing like this were every one had a unique ability completely. Some of the powers were very cool actually, jakobs in particular
They’re powers weren’t exactly fighting powers even, in fact, they reminded me of fairies
Also the big reveal of the mystery was very unexpected like I never would have guessed it till Amrit was discovering it as well
I really enjoyed Emily’s writing in the disappearances and she’s shown it only gets better, I look foreword to her next book
