This one was a bit more intense for me, but I really am getting into these.
Honestly, there was some bad grammar and a few contrived situations, but mostly it all flowed very naturally and the characters were very engaging. I enjoyed it and will proceed to the next book at some point! :)
Wow. Beautiful and terrible, lovely and horrifying. Loved this. (and don't be afraid to read it, there's enough light in the darkness to keep it from smothering you. ;) )
I didn't like this one nearly as well as Childhood's end, too many cultural judgements (“They couldn't possibly!”), too many people speaking “plaintively”, and characters were GRABBY. “she knew she HAD to have it!”
