[ad] Review: «Nevermoor: The Trials of Morrigan Crow» by Jessica Townsend 📖
Here’s the thing: I didn’t hate «Nevermoor», but I didn’t really love it either. It was just one of those books that remains somewhere in the middle. Not bad, but also not great.
.
My main problem was that there were just so many things going on (and i dont mean plot-wise). I mean, you have people flying with umbrellas and on dragons, a big, talking cat, zombies, a giant spider machine, unicorns, a living hotel (?), strange words, stranger names, shadow monsters, and the list goes on... To me, it was all a bit too much, too many references, too many worlds mixed together into one. I’m all for creating strange, new worlds, but it has to have a certain kind of cohesiveness, otherwise it just collapses into itself. .
I never really connected with the story because most of the time I was more confused than Morrigan, which really is saying a lot.
.
With that being said, «Nevermoor» definitely has its qualities and I probably would have liked it a lot more when I was the actual age it is intended for. (Yes, I feel extremely old writing this, and no, I don’t want to talk about it.)
