Overall, a great story!
Get ready for a throw-the-book-across-the-room cliffhanger! Ugh!
My absolute favorite...
Lakesedge is a beautifully gothic tale indeed! It's moody, macabre, murderous, and mysterious...exactly what I hoped for from this book! The world building is gradual and no small detail is spared making for an immersive story. The characters and relationships therein are well-built and it felt natural to watch their stories unfold through the story.
Unfortunately for me, I found myself getting lost and a bit confused by the writing at times almost like I couldn't ground myself easily in the story. I can't exactly put my finger on why...maybe it just doesn't flow as well as it could?
Overall, though, a great read and I'm anxiously awaiting the next installment!
Thank you Henry Holt and Co. (BYR) for the e-ARC via NetGalley to read and review honestly.
