4.0

 Honestly, House of Sky and Breath did not live up to the hype. Did I like reading it? Yes. Was it enjoyable? Yes. Was it a few hundred pages too long, with too many confusing plot lines and twists that didn’t really make sense? Yes. That being said, I don’t read SJM books for the well-written stories. I read them for the drama and the angst and the romance. Even though I find its writing to be lacking, you know I’ll be running to get my hands on CC3 when it comes out!
