forgot to mention that i’m reading valiant (about halfway through) but i have…. very few thoughts to share
#characters eh. plot eh#i realize val is on her rebellious teen arc which like. good for her - truly#but i keep thinking ‘she could just go home’#(not now - now she’s magically cursed (?). but before)#so far the modern faerie tales have felt much more exploratory in nature#rather than really clearly plot driven#(or even clearly character driven#like val is pretty much floating from one thing to the next with little agency)#like there’s a murder mystery going on#but Val’s just learning about it#as she explores the faerie world#and exploratory novels can really work (i LOVE the starless sea for example - feels like slowly uncovering a new world *with* the mc)#but it’s just not working for me here#I’m….. bored#reading the modern faerie tales#reading valiant#valiant#holly black#modern faerie tales
