Spirits That Walk in Shadow by Nina Kiriki Hoffman

1.0

OH MY GOD NEITHER OF THEM ARE ACTING LIKE HUMANS and the dialogue is KILLING ME. Whyyy.

end: So every character was exactly the same, just with different names and occasionally a shout-out to their assigned personality trait. A lot of telling and not showing, a lot of crappy dialogue that no one would actually say, a lot of lip service to The College Process, exactly five curse words for that bit of oh-so-careless edge, and entirely too much wiftiness.

All in all, fail. Not sure I want to touch the rest of her stuff now.
