Six Crimson Cranes
Review:
Cool book! I liked how it felt fantastical and a little superficial. I think it gave an excellent feel to the story. I also liked the main character's needs and how complex she seemed. I related to many of her problems and, for the most part, liked the way she acted. The stepmother thing was a little weird, and I don’t understand why she didn’t just tell them. The descriptions were great, and I could perfectly picture the characters. I wish some parts were a little more logical because it was really weird that no one asked why she had a bowl on her head or how there was a talking crane. The villain seemed to come late into the book, but I liked him. It was interesting how through the book, the villain changed, and opinions changed. That added a human aspect you don’t get in many fantasy books. It was a 4.5 because of those reasons and the slow beginning. This was a great book and I can’t wait to talk about it in book club!
