SHADOW OF THE FOX BOOK REVIEW | JULIE KAGAWA

[@saiftokath9984]

I bought this book recently and i can't wait to get into it as i love Japan

[@ebnovels]

Ohhh, then I think you’ll really enjoy it!

[@kristybittick4688]

Loooooved this book !! I listened to the audiobook ❤️❤️❤️ it read like an anime

[@leah492]

Great review! I can't wait to read this one. I agree with what you said about the "damsel" trope. It sounds like it is believable here and not a major plot point or very out of character (cough... Heir of Fire 😂) so yay! I am going to read this one after Skyward for the buddy read!! Woo hoo

[@ebnovels]

I hope you love it! Haha, and it’s definitely believable for the girl character to not know how to fight. It didn’t bother me one bit! 😆

[@jazung]

Love your enthusiasm and energy, Elliot! Great review as always :) Already ordered the trilogy!

[@AozoraZz]

I love anime and it was so easy for me to dive in this book. I love the shade towards SJMs heroines lol. Seriously I love Yumeko's quirky personality, doesnt feel pretentious and she isnt annoying.

[@GEORGIOARCADE]

Wow! Elliot this review makes me even more excited to go try this book right away! I love how the girl can shape shift into a fox. So part 1 is basically character building & how the world comes together? I actually like that cuz I wanna know how they get from one destination to another. From your awesome review; it seems like it's gonna be a good emotional rollercoaster & honestly I like that too lol. Im happy the girl displays some bravery. See this is why I like watching your channel because how you convey a story. I would love to see this as a anime series or TV show. Maybe you can star in it lol😅 Anyways this review gets a go & subscribe now from me cuz you truly showed a book review should be like. Have a bless one ❤

[@ebnovels]

I really want it to be an anime!!! Or a manga :D Based on the books you’ve said you like, I think you’d enjoy this one. It just came out so it’s probably a little pricey, but if you find it on sale at any point or if it’s at a library near you I’d say give it a try 😊

[@EagleM357]

You are extending my want-to-read list faster than I can read.

[@pahouaxy7524]

I finished the book today and absolutely loved it💗

[@briek9482]

Thanks for the review. I just started this book today and now my excitement for it is renewed

[@morgandestiny5321]

[@bookswithalyssaj449]

[@real_jjk4647]

[@bookellenic1327]

[@gingersnapcam7334]

Gosh I read this book twice 😥 it's so much fun to reeead!

[@ebnovels]

I’m so excited for the next one :D

[@gingersnapcam7334]

@@ebnovels sAmE! I've had the next book pre-ordered for months now xD I'm actually low-key sad that this series is only going to be three books, buuut it's probably for the better 😥💕

[@yisraelaker6696]

Where can I purchase the shadow of the fox

[@Phiaaaissooocoollll]

amazon

[@meiko0325]

I loved the book. I read it like i would watch an anime, the creatures and the places they explored was amazing to imagine. I didnt expect that ending and it got me straight into the second book of the trilogy.

[@nounourslove3054]

This was (besides Shadowhunters)MY ABSOLUTELY FAVORITE BOOK EVER!!!!❤️❤️❤️

[@BeautifullyBookishBethany]

I mostly agree with you on this. I did think that the writing read a bit on the younger end.

[@karenbenson2012]

Great review!! I’ve been on the fence about this one but you’ve peaked my interest! ⛩

[@arkofbooks4071]

This looks sooooo good! I'm definitely putting this book on my TBR list!

[@KierTheScrivener]

I just saw this in chapters and was intrigued. I love Asian inspired and lots of character building and meandering. Totally going to pick it up soon. I love how we have to defend ourselves for thinking someone cannot naturally learn years of martial arts and weaponry in a few days.

This sounds like something I’d love! Thank you for your great review, I’d been looking for thoughts on it to decide whether to get it or not (:

[@PurpleQueen3]

They have an audiobook of Shadow of the Fox on Hoopla in case anyone is interested!😀

[@honoree-louisenguyen8634]

Thanks for the review, Elle! I haven’t heard of this book before, but I’m totally interested now. I’d like to add a point regarding traveling story. I totally agree that it’s realistic for things on the way to be rather random as long as the characters still have the main mission in mind. That said, the author does have complete control over which happenings to tell and which to show in details, and sometimes they may end up showing too much unimportant stuff, which is usually my concerns when it comes to this type of stories. I think where the right balance is depends on the reader’s taste, so I’m curious to find out where I stand with this book. (As I typed this, I realized the irony of me being the one who forgives The Name of The Wind for showing way too much! Haha) Anyway, I love your point about there being multiple types of strength. To restrict women (or men) to just physical strength or any one type of strength for that matter is to have done a disservice to the entire group!

[@ebnovels]

Yes to the strength part! Whoever you are, whatever you look like, bravery and strength come in different forms 💗 I think how you described the traveling elements was really well put. There was one part that maybe didn’t alter the main plot much, but I loved it. The resolution of that part was really nice, and it allowed us to see how the characters would act in that situation. But it does come down to preference :)

[@cenycal]

Travel is always difficult to pull off well. I'm not a writer but I am a Dungeon Master, and I've found conveying a sense passage of time without it feeling it is a waste time is difficult. So when an author succeeds at it, Huzzah!

[@elizabethd7478]

That sounds amazing

[@sophiasthoughts]

Oh dear, that's another book to add to my TBR 😕 I love all things Japanese (the culture, the language, the county, the FOOD!!) So I'm definitely intrigued by this x

[@ktsbookishescape4299]

This sounds so up my alley!

[@safinan8008]

Hi thanks for the review, I might check out the book!! Enjoy the book skyward by Brandon Sanderson!!! Happy reading to u 🍁

[@ebnovels]

Happy reading to you! And you’re welcome 😄

[@hermioneamorconvicto8311]

I already read this book..

[@ghostiegengar6847]

I swear everytime Okame opens his mouth it makes me laugh.

[@Vahisofficial]

"Let me guess, the two will fall in love with each other and get together?"... Thats what i was writing when i started watching this xD Just ordered this and Soul Of The Sword. Hope its good. I love japanese mythology and foxes =) The title drew my attention.." hmm.. Something about foxes".

[@jerricho11]

Ironically, I think the guy is more of a damsel in distress in this story and it works for the plot. That boi needs some help!

[@michaelfeeney6108]

I’d never heard of this- it sounds good. Thanks for the review! @feeney86

[@sinistermephisto65]

It felt like a children's book. i could not persevere

[@skullkid3350]

sounds boring and standard. Almost sounds like Inuyasha
