Draw Down the Moon by Kristin Cast, P.C. Cast
Did not finish book. Stopped at 18%.
This reads like a middle grade fantasy.
I think if it was marketed that way I would have come into it with a different mindset, but as it is, I'm very thrown off by the fact that they're supposed to be 18 years old. 14 would have made way more sense, and the cringey dialogue / actions (a dude trips her? in college?) would have felt more realistic.
Wren is so small. And has a double bird name. and is so short. and pours soap in a fountain for her birthday. and has pink in her hair. She's so quirky. and small. I also must have missed how everyone was supposed to keep this secret about moon magic but she still knows. If her parent's told her why did they make her uncle promise not to talk to her about it? How did she find out about Lee and Sam?
Lee is. sigh. Fine. His unrequited crush again feels a little juvenile. But I just can't bring myself to care about either of them or their romance.
