I barely slogged my way through this, and only did it because I promised a friend I’d read it. Dawsyn lives on the Ledge, a frozen wasteland with no real escape, where occasionally Glacians come pluck human lives for slaughter. 

I think when you combine all the main and side characters into one, you get one fully-fleshed out personality. Seriously, everyone in this book felt so incredibly bland it was hard to get through. The worst by far was Ryon, the life interest who had no defining characteristic other than the fact that he was a “half breed” and called Dawsyn “girl” all the time (ew!). I’d say I hate him, but to hate implies strong feelings, and he is so boring that I can’t even manage that. 

Anyway. Other than the fact that the characters are boring, I guess the idea of the story was good. I thought it was way too short and the descriptions were lacking (not that I actually wanted more of this book), but it just seemed very surface-level. I think this could have benefitted a lot from another 100 pages of character work and better descriptions. Oh well.
