The Imposition of Unnecessary Obstacles by Malka Older

4.0


I really enjoyed this new entry in the series. It took me a moment to get used to the writing style again, but once I did, it was truly a delight to read. The mystery was engaging, the setting made this feel unique and I liked the dynamic between the two main characters. I hope Pleiti and Mossa finally have a conversation about their relationship in the next book. Pleiti was in a lot of turmoil about it and this led to a lot of internal monologue on this topic, which occasionally felt repetitive. Overall, though, it was a good read, and I’m anticipating what comes next for these two.
