Review: As Black as Ebony

As Black as Ebony by Salla Simukka
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

This is the 3rd. book in the Lumikki Andersson series. It's tagged as young adult, which happens to be my guilty pleasure, but I think book 2 is the best in the series.

It's a good idea to read this books in order, as part of the plot is related from one book to the other, even if the main events are different in each book.

Lumikki is a serious young girl, who was terribly bullied as a child. She lives alone in a small studio, has a distant relationship with her parents and is always getting into trouble with serious criminals.
The third book reveals much about Lumikki's past, she's a more mature character, but the plot is rushed, and too many situations are rushed in less than 200 pages.

I received an ARC of this book in exchange for an honest review.
