Europa A Winter's Promise

This book is just an exception to all the other books on the market with the same trope. I was a bit hesitant to get this books at first as it is a translated piece which has been translated from french int English. Despite my doubts i didn't notice any discomfort in reading it and if someone gave this book to me and told me this was a English novel i would believe em!!!!! The story is so whimsical with such an atmospheric feel. The world building is unique and well explained and the power system is certainly interesting. I lived to see Ophelia's development throughout the book and the book arrived in good condition.

Livro muito lindo! Até agora veio escrito tudo certinho porém tenho algumas falhas de tinta em algumas letrinhas nada de mais! Super recomendo fiquei um mês na lista de espera para comprar mais vale super a pena

what a beautifully written debut novel!! definitely something that i would recommend to someone who loved castle in the sky growing up, and still does, like me, because i felt like i was seeing laputa and the other floating cities from that film before they fell into ruin. this doesn't take away from the novel's originality or uniqueness at all either. it adds to it!! the prose reminds me of the magical books i read growing up that had me falling in love with fantasy when i was young. this is definitely a book where the side-characters stand out as much as the main characters!! they're all memorable and give the reader strong feelings about them no matter what they're up to. the main character was far and away my favorite. i loved her so much!! i too would love to have a sentient scarf that sits around my neck all the time. another thing i loved about this was the clear display of how capitalism hurts those at the bottom of the monetary food chain and i can't wait to see how this is addressed in the books to come. the setting, ofc, as i've already mentioned was incredible. i never wanted to leave that world and i was always immediately coming back for more. the plot itself is far from predictable and there was more than one moment where i was gasping or putting my hand over my mouth or saying "oh no" out loud and i LOVE it when books make me do that!! it does take a bit for the whole point of the story to be revealed, but despite that i didn't feel like this was a slow paced novel at all. they definitely keep you entertained up until that point to the point that you have no idea that's what's coming. all in all, this novel was amazing and i can hardly wait to start the sequel!!

Storia interessante ma un po’ lenta avvolte lettura un po’ pesante ma in generale un buon libro. Arrivato perfetto e nei tempi giusti
