![]() ![]() These outside POVs felt wrong, and at least in the Kindle version, no scene or chapter breaks announced the transitions. Mysteriously, approximately 5-10% is from the point of view of her friend Corny, and about 2% from the romantic interest. Tithe is written in third person past, with the protagonist Kaye dominating the POV. Not that I didn’t like the first, but I really liked certain things about the second. While White Cat’s premise is perhaps a tad more original, I found Tithe‘s creepy fairy flavor more to my taste. Both have unhappy but not completely tragic endings. Both wrap themselves up in the last quarter in a way that compromises the believability of the secondary characters. ![]() Both have the action so condensed as to occasionally be confusing. Both are short YA books, with nice prose and likable main characters thrown into ‘weird’ paranormal situations. I enjoyed White Cat (REVIEW HERE) a lot and so I went back to read her debut novel. This is the second Holly Black book I’ve read. ![]()
