Another Bayern book, which I wasn't really wild about...but then again I didn't love Enna and River right away, so it might grow on me to be a 4 star review. My problem was that Rin was such a non-character, in the beginning. She is quite literally a shadow who eventually takes form. And it's hard to identify with a shadow. I will not spoil the two big twists Shannon Hale has said not to spoil, because that's just mean. I will say that I felt the book had too many cliches, Isi has a baby, babyIt was the most twisted plot! I loved it. It had so much excitement! I didn't like that Rin never found love though. 😣
Confession: I bought this book only because they rereleased it in a cover that matches the first three of the series that I already owned. I'm not a fan of the new covers. Maybe it shouldn't matter, but it does. If I'm going to spend money on a book, I'm going to get a copy that looks good.I read this series somewhat out of order, picking up Enna Burning and reading that before I realized it was a sequel to The Goose Girl. (Gold star to Shannon Hale for writing a series wherein each individual
Im sad to say that this was the last of Shannon Hales Books of Bayern series. However, I really enjoyed it.Razo and Rin are and will always be two of my most favorite characters. Razo is hilarious. The two share a strong brother-sister bond which is really cool.You did a GREAT job, Shannon Hale. I will always be a fan!(Oh and Enna and Finn finally get married)[Edit: 1/14/18]I just finished reading this book a second time through!!! I loved this book so much! Im proud to own a copy now. :) Rin
Man, after enjoying books 1-3 I am kind of disappointed that I didnt enjoy this one as much. I almost came close to giving it 2 stars but even I have to admit that the main character developed decently at the end.First of all besides me having a problem with her imitation I also couldnt find it believable that she needed to do this because she didnt have a personality of her own. It just made no sense to me. I found the pacing of this story to be slow and in my opinion, River of Secrets gave me
Like Hale's other books, the words in this book are carefully chosen and full of creative, unique similes. While this is the fourth book in the series, each can be read alone and still be understood.In this one, Razo's sister, Rin, fears there is something inherently evil about her that will end up hurting others. The conspiracies and adventures in the story are mere background for this inner struggle. The teen years are when everyone struggles to decide who they really are, which makes this
Im so sad this series is over!!!! Its been a long time since Ive binged a series, but I loved every second.
