The Book of M - Peng Shepherd

The Book of M: A Novel - Peng Shepherd

First Impression: I want to fall into that cover <3

 

Character Development: Shepherd creates fully realized and humanly broken people with real problems and feelings. Distinct personalities and growth abound.

 

World Building: A future where losing the memory of the past will impact present reality. The idea of losing one's shadow, and the repercussions thereafter are bought to fruition in an original concept piece.

 

Writing Style: I'm now a fan of Shepherd, who understands how to hold suspense while satisfying curiosity. Timely and full of heart. 

 

What I Enjoyed: The characters, their relationships, and their journey! The magic and mythology weaved with a post-apocalyptic future brought intrigue to every chapter.

 

Overall Rating: 5 stars - I adored everything about this book.
