Eve’s Reviews > Sandry's Book > Status Update

My only critique about this book is the pacing. It was a little slow at times, but I really enjoyed the last fourth of the book. And the characters were great.

I still think that Alie had good taste in books and reading this one was a fun way to honor her. I'm glad that I finally took her recommendation. 😁

Now I know why the series is called circle of magic. 🙂

Damn!! Poor Sandry is triggered at the moment. It was nice of Tris to remind Sandry that she's not a coward. That's true. I wonder if Sandry was triggered by being stuck in a dark cave since she was stuck in a dark room at the beginning of the book.

'My reasoning was the same as it was for Tris; I preferred that you grow into knowing your power, instead of having it thrust on you, to keep from damaging your spirits any more than they’ve been.'

I understand Niko's reason for wanting to protect the kids, but I also understand why the kids would be irritated with him because they wanted to know about their magic all along.

'You four get to train this fierce, wolflike creature to take his business out-of-doors,' she told them as she worked. 'And clean up after him, and stop him from chewing everything in sight.”

This is the perfect description of a puppy. 😆

Daja's acquaintances who are smiths seem to think that she's very unusual because she can touch super hot things without being burned by them. I'm guessing that this has to do with her magical abilities.
