The Seventh Day by Scott Shepherd
adventurous
dark
mysterious
fast-paced
- Plot- or character-driven? A mix
- Strong character development? Yes
- Loveable characters? Yes
- Diverse cast of characters? No
- Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated
4.5
I'd give this book 5 stars if it weren't for the lazy ending.
Everything up to the end was fast-paced, made me curious, and I liked the cast of characters. I was so, so interested in the worldbuilding and history of this world, but the author never really gave many answers when the book heavily hinted at giving them. But no answers were given, so the ending of The Seventh Day left me feeling dissatisfied. Too "tied up with a bow" feeling.
