When Among Crows by Veronica Roth
adventurous
dark
mysterious
fast-paced
- Plot- or character-driven? A mix
- Strong character development? It's complicated
- Loveable characters? It's complicated
- Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
- Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated
3.5
Thank you to Macmillan for the audio copy!
I don't think I'm going to include a synopsis in my review because this story was short and fast-paced, so I don't want to unintentionally give anything away.
When I started listening to this, I honestly forgot what it was about, and I think that kind of peaked my interest even more. But I also didn't realize that it is a standalone novella. I wanted soooo much more from this story because I was so interested in the dynamics of the world and what it could hold. Like I said above, this story was very fast-paced, so if you weren't paying close attention, you could miss something important.
I rarely finish a book and not know what to talk about in my review, but I guess there's always a first! I liked the characters well enough, I just felt like I didn't get to know them very well. Their relationships felt pretty important to moving the story along, but they all felt like they were surface level, not a lot of depth into what was really driving them to work together. I just don't know. So that's why it's getting a 3.5 from me. I just really wanted more.
