![]() One of the things I loved most about The Jasmine Throne was the beautiful world-building filled with fascinating magic and competing gods. ![]() The Oleander Sword thankfully delivered in every way imaginable, and it had me so glued to the story that I finished the second half of the book in one sitting, which unfortunately necessitated an all-nighter that I’m now somewhat regretting. I hoped that the sequel would do a bit more and move the story forward at a faster pace now that the groundwork was laid out in The Jasmine Throne. I enjoyed the first book in this series quite a bit because of the lush world-building and memorable characters, but it had a plodding pace that made me feel as if every one of its 500+ pages was dragging by. ![]() My review contains my honest thoughts about my reading experience.*** ![]() ***Thank you to Orbit Books for providing a copy of the book via NetGalley. ![]()
