A review by danrue
Crewel by Gennifer Albin

4.0

This was given a 5-star rating by a favorite author of mine so I took it as a suggestion to read the book as the author and I like similar books. I feel the story was rushed and the characters were not given any time to adjust and develop to their new surroundings and the other/new people in them. I feel that the emotional reactions could have been more available to the reader. The part of the book I enjoyed the least was the antifeminism. The whole world was built to oppress women but the book did nothing to stop the actions and beliefs. I did enjoy the realm and all of the possibility of the weave and hope that more is seen in following novels. Maybe this book was introductional and the real story starts off in the second. I am not sure when but I will definitely get around to reading the next novel and enjoyed this one despite my problems with it.
