Magical Readathon: Orilium - Choose Your Own Adventure: Year In Aeldia - September Update

     

Happy Saturday everyone! Today I'm sharing my thoughts on the book I read in September for the Choose Your Own Adventure: Year In Adelia, an additional challenge to G. @ Book Roast's Magical Readathon.  You can see my full tbr here.  Without further ado, check out my mini review below.

❋ ❋ ❋ 

League of Liars (The League of Liars #1) by Astrid Scholte is a solid YA fantasy mystery thriller, but it doesn't quite manage to live up to the premise.  It's been compared to Six of Crows so of course my expectations were fairly even though I read a lot of mixed reviews.  I would definitely consider this much more of a courtroom drama in a fantasy setting than a heist.  It's a little overlong and repetitive as well, but that said the world-building elements are pretty fascinating.  I see that there is a planned sequel on the horizon, but I don't think I'm interested in it enough to come back into this world.

My review is also on Goodreads.
