The blurb for TIMEKEEPER indeed sounds great, I'm always interested in stories that are set in the Victorian era and if they also mess up with time it's even better :D
The Leigh Bardugo books always look SO pretty but I'm not sure if I would like the stories, maybe I should just give them a try some day^^

9 years ago @ The Innocent Smiley - Review: Sleeping Giants · 1 reply · +1 points
Don't get me wrong, I really enjoyed "Sleeping Giants" and loved the premise but I never really felt as if I was in the middle of the story but rather as an observer who only gets to know about the fun when it had already happened.
I was also a bit disappointed by the narration. I absolutely love the dossier style (especially if it's so perfectly executed as in "Illuminae") but I definitely felt like it could have needed a bit more variety because 90% of this book were just interviews in a sterile environment and so I got never really hooked by the story.
I definitely liked this book and even got a print copy after reading the eARC because it's so damn pretty but I just don't think it lives up to the hype, but maybe that might change with the sequel(s).

If you enjoy THE FOLD I also recommend 14 because it's set in the same universe and there are some connections between those books! ;)
