Lirael
المراجعات
Reread: 10/16/23I've identified with Lirael for a long time and rereading this in my 30s has been an interesting experience. Lirael suffers from isolation and depression even struggling with suicidal ideation but finds solace in a position in the library where she can be left to her solitude. As a young adult I see how I would've identified with this, but as an older adult I am so happy that I have moved past that. Lirael is a longer book as it takes its time setting up our characters' experiences and how that has shaped their personalities. The first half or so of the book is a bit slower but definitely picks up as the characters start to move. Lirael feels unique from Sabriel, but she is still capable and talented in her own way. My favorite part of this book is definitely the plot twist between Lirael and Sam.
