Stephen reviewed Holy Sister by Mark Lawrence
Review of 'Holy Sister' on 'Goodreads'
4 stars
Can't decide how much I liked this. It's gotten darker again, nearly everyone is either aching or in agony. However the series wrapped up satisfyingly, and I didn't want to put the book down. So the fact that I found Nona quite annoying is perhaps not as significant as it feels. She also admits to feeling bad about doing a bad thing from book #2 which felt brushed-past at the time.
Romance and sex still seems to be dealt with in a bit of an odd way in this series. There's more than you might expect in a coming-of-age story that's set in a nunnery.
