Six Crimson Cranes has a place within the finalists of the Goodreads Choice Awards for a reason.. and that reason is its beautiful setting, the sweet story, and the overall coziness that the story projects. I think it's a perfect book to read when you're feeling a bit down.

The story is very compelling: we will see a curse fallen upon our main girl, turning her brothers into cranes and forcing her to remain silent as for every word spoken, one of her brothers will die.

However ☝️I found the pacing of the book to be a bit weird- packed at the beginning and the end and really, really slow at the middle - bigger- chunk. And also... the characters were a bit plain for me, I wasn't really moved by their story... compelled and thrilled by the ambiance? YES. Suffering for our main girl and her brothers? No really, no.

I'm still very interested in book 2 as it promises to spend even more time with one of my fave characters, the dragon! Let's see!
