The below reviews are intended to be short, and easily read within 1 minute. All reviews are my own personal opinions, and I would love everyone to share their opinions as well. I read a lot of Fantasy Books (with the occasional historical fiction and thrilled thrown in), therefore my reviews are generally based on 3 things:
World Building - Is the world of the book worth spending time in?
Characters - Am I able to connect with the characters, or find them interesting?
Plot - Is the plot engaging and does it leave me wanting more?
The Poppy War
Fair warning, when I said this book is grim and dark, I meant it. I can’t think of another fantasy book that so shockingly illustrates the violence and horrors of war. This book is called the “Poppy” war, for a reason. I was on the edge of my seat reading this book, and I had no idea what was going to happen.
