LitPick Review
Libyrinth is a fantasy novel that draws you into a dark world where two different opinions can turn into war. The main character, Clerk Haly, respects her life and beliefs at the labyrinth until the discovery of one book (The Book of the Night) changes everything. This discovery led Haly to be kidnapped by the supposedly evil, book-burning Eradicants. Haly discovers that sometimes people are not what they seem during her adventures with the people she thought were beasts.
Opinion:
I thought the book was quite exciting, but had some parts that didn't really spark my interest. Libyrinth had an interesting plot that made the reader not want to put the book down until finished, though some parts the author did not elaborate on that could have been a lot more specific. Pearl North could have explained the settings quite a bit more, and she left a bit too much to the imagination. However, the main characters were very believable, and I could imagine them perfectly fine. The writing was powerful, and at some points, I didn't want to put the book down because they were so exciting. Also, the ending was very abrupt and didn't exactly sum up the questions I was asking, but North did do well on leaving some parts of the book to the imagination even though some weren't needed. Overall, I enjoyed the book, and I would recommend it to anybody who is ready for intense action and a slight hint of romance.
