Product Information

As a consequence, Ophelia is now lunged into the public spotlight, as well as the behind of the scenes of Citaceleste, the floating capital of the Pole. Sabri_nao Fandoms: La Passe-Miroir | The Mirror Visitor - Christelle Dabos, Pride and Prejudice - Jane Austen, Pride and Prejudice (2005) C’est l’histoire de ce qu’il se passe dans ma tête depuis que j’ai refermé le dernier tome de La Passe-Miroir. Slow paced. Pretty Character driven and a lot in the head of the main character since she spends a lot of time not talking. Main character is so bland, it was hard to root for her. It’s nice to not have the same strong warrior for once but man is she bland.

Anima is the home arch of Ophélie. The large family of the Animists lives there, and Artemis is the Family Spirit of Anima : she almost never leaves her astronomical observatory. She is more interested in the stars than in her own descendants. The Animists all have a affinity with objects : they can breathe life into them and repair them at will. However, each Animist tends to specialize none field. For instance, Ophélie is particularly gifted for reading the past of the objects, which earned her to become a museum curator until her engagement.Ogni cosa viene svelata pagina dopo pagina ma alla fine ci ritroviamo con ancora più dubbi di prima, nonostante la nostra illusione di avere imparato o carpito qualcosa. La scrittura sostiene benissimo e in maniera elegante tutto l'arco narrativo. And when Berenilde specifically tells her “Listen, this is important, Gustave is going to approach you with an offer, tell me at once when he does” what does she do when Gustave indeed approaches her? NOTHING. Does she warn Berenilde? OF COURSE NOT. I swear she’s dumber than a goat. Wish the main character had some more, hem, character. She is a bit bland and doesn’t get much nor is overly curious to better understand her new surroundings. French author Christelle Dabos, creates complex layered worlds, and an enthralling and intricate plot that moves at a fast pace with lots of twists. Readers have been completely drawn in by this richly imagined universe of the arks: floating celestial islands governed by the spirits of immortal ancestors. Fidanzati dell’Inverno è un libro che si fa divorare, riuscendo a tenere vivo l’interesse del lettore anche nelle parti più lente e descrittive. So che su questo punto ci sono opinioni contrastanti, ma io l’ho trovato scorrevole e di facile lettura.

by seducing their wives. His sense of provocation is equalled only by his unshakeable frankness. Then… friend or foe ? Overall despite all the things left unsaid I really liked the book, all the journey, thought it was a really fun ride, loved Ophelia and Thorn, and the world building was super creative so I will 100% recomend the series I liked the characters even more than I was expecting, even Thorn I gradually warmed to slightly by the end, even though he was a grump of a character. I can't wait to find out more about him in subsequent books! Since she is my sister and since she is your Family Spirit, I suppose you are a kind of grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-niece ? »
