Dear Lila,
Strange the dreamer. What can I say?
Firstly, expectations are always high when it's a Laini book and she never disappoints!
Secondly, the cover is gorgeous and the colour is perfect. As she says
"Blue as opals, pale blue. Blue as cornflowers, or dragonfly wings, or a spring—not summer—sky."
I LOVED IT! I knew I would, I could have put money on the fact that I would.
The prologue really stuck in my mind to start with and then I forgot about a bit while I went on... But I anyways find that interesting as when you show yourself to remember you wonder who it is going to be about.
As you know, I dream A LOT! and often very unusual, colourful, imaginative dreams (of only I was that creative in life) so I always particularly like stories about dreams as I feel like they are not meant for me, that's silly, but they resonate with me I guess.
I really liked Lazlo. He reminded me of someone but I can't think who. Did he remind you of anyone?
As you know from the texts I sent, I was making some speculation along the way and was right on one of the counts to do with Lazlo.
I also love that Laini liked my tweet about when I started reading the Muse of Nightmares chapter and a Moth flew in my window. I thought that was so cool on both counts, that she liked it and that the timing of that moth was so perfect.
I really liked Sarai and nice to know how to pronounce it as I wasn't sure and kept thinking of it as Sarah.
I like that I had the whole thought process of whether it would be Sparrow or Sarai, especially when they were putting plums in their pockets and then discussing that with Laini and her saying that's what she had hoped would be the case. So that's just really cool. Love having conversations like that with authors.
I thought the ending was pretty obvious with regards to what Minya did and said though, didn't you!?
Really pleased it's not a one off, as I hadn't remembered you saying it was a duology. Yay.
Clearly *****
Love, Rach x
