So as I mentioned yesterday, I have been just reading the Fablehaven series and I haven't written any reviews about it yet! So even though this is the third book, it fits with today's letter :) I will get all four on here before the end of A to Z! I finished this back in January, at least I keep my Goodreads account somewhat updated :)
Title: Grip of the Shadow Plague (Fablehaven #3)
Author: Brandon Mull
Genre: YA Fantasy
Rating: 4 out of 5
Why Did I Read? Continuing along the series...by here he had me hooked!
Summary: (again stolen from Goodreads) Strange things are afoot at Fablehaven. Someone or something has released a plague that transforms beings of light into creatures of darkness. Seth discovers the problem in its infancy, but as the infectious disease spreads, it becomes clear that the preserve cannot hold out for long. In dire need of help, the Sorensons question where to turn. The Sphinx has always given sound advice–but is he a traitor? Inside the Quiet Box, Vanessa might have information that could lead to a cure–but can she be trust? Meanwhile, Kendra and members of the Knights of the Dawn must journey to a distant preserve and retrieve another hidden artifact. Will the Society of the Evening Star recover it first? Will the plague eclipse all light at Fablehaven?
What Did I Love: I liked how this one allowed Seth's character to grow a bit more. Yes I still have the moments of really why is he doing that, and I can't really trust him. But I liked how he is getting his own powers and starting to really contribute.
What Did I Hate: I didn't really hate anything about this one. I rated it in the moment, and to be honest I can't really remember why it was a 4 over a 5 or a 4.5. But I do remember thinking that this story didn't grab my interest as much--it was becoming a bit predictable. Fablehaven is always about ready to be destroyed.
